Post-transcriptional chemical modifications of (t)RNA molecules are crucial in fundamental biological processes, such as translation. Despite their importance and accumulating evidence linking them to various human diseases, technical challenges have limited detection accurate quantification. Here, we present a sensitive capillary nanoflow liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (nLC-MS) pipeline for quantitative high-resolution analysis ribonucleoside from complex samples. We evaluated two...

Abstract The synthesis of the protected form 2‐methylthio‐ N 6 ‐threonylcarbamoyl adenosine ( ms 2 t A) was developed starting from or guanosine by using optimized carbamate method and, for first time, an isocyanate route. hypermodified nucleoside subsequently transformed into A ‐phosphoramidite monomer and used in a large‐scale precursor 17nt ‐oligonucleotide (the anticodon stem loop fragment tRNA Lys T. brucei ). Finally, stereochemically secure → ct cyclization at oligonucleotide level...

The continuous deciphering of crucial biological roles RNA modifications and their involvement in various pathological conditions, together with key the use RNA-based therapeutics, has reignited interest studying occurrence identity non-canonical ribonucleoside structures during past years. Discovery structural elucidation new modified is usually achieved by combination liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) at nucleoside level stable isotope labeling...
ABSTRACT Circularization is at the frontier of therapeutic messenger RNA (mRNA) enhancements. Currently available enzymatic and ribozymatic methods for generating circular RNAs (circRNAs) face several challenges related to sequence limitations, purification, sub-optimal biological activity. The chemical circularization synthetic fragments potentially overcomes these limitations but applicable only extremely short sequences. Here, we report a novel approach accessing based on in vitro...

A novel and efficient way for the synthesis of N6 -hydantoin-modified adenosines, which utilizes readily available -(N-Boc-α-aminoacyl)-adenosine derivatives, was developed. The procedure is based on epimerization-free, Tf2 O-mediated conversion Boc group into an isocyanate moiety, followed by intramolecular cyclization. Using this method two recently discovered hydantoin modified tRNA that is, cyclic -threonylcarbamoyl-adenosine (ct6 A) 2-methylthio-N6 -threonylcarbamoyladenosine (ms2 ct6...
