酵母丙氨酸转移核糖核酸3′-半分子(36—76)的合成

本文报告用T_4RNA连接酶将相应于酵母丙氨酸转移核糖核酸(tRNA_y~(Ala))3′-半分子(36—76)的三个寡核昔酸大片段——10(36—45)(Ⅰ),12(46—57)(Ⅱ)和19p(58—76)(Ⅲ)——从3′-端向5′-端延伸逐个连接合成了这个tRNA的3′-半分子(36—76)。首先在供受体配比为1:1.5的情况下,采取三步连续反应,即19p(Ⅲ)的5′-磷酸化,然后与12(Ⅱ)的连接和连接反应产物的5′-磷酸化等反应,一次制备分离的方法,以70％的总得率合成了5′-磷酸化的三十一核苷酸(46—76)(Ⅳ)。然后,以(Ⅳ)作为下一步反应的供体和三倍量的10(Ⅰ)连接,以67％的产率合成了具有四十一核苷酸的tRNA_y~(Ala)的3′-半分子(36—76)(Ⅴ)。将这个合成的3′-半分子,5′-磷酸化以后,与天然的5′-半分子连接,人工半合成了tRNA_y~(Ala)整分子,经生物活力测定,这个人工半合成的tRNA_y~(Ala)具有接受[~3H]-丙氨酸、并能将接受的丙氨酸转移到蛋白质分子中去的生物活力。     

SYNTHESIS OF THE 3'-HALF MOLECULE OF YEAST ALANINE tRNA

This paper deals with the synthesis of the 3'-half molecule of yeast alanine transfer RNA (tRNA_y~(Ala)) by ligation with T_4 RNA ligase of three component oligonucleotide fragments corresponding to nucleotides 36-45(Ⅰ), 46-57(Ⅱ) and 58-76(Ⅲ) in succession extending from the 3'-end to the 5'-end. First, in a ratio of acceptor to donor at 1.5 to 1, we adopted a method of three successive reactions, namely, the 5'-phosphorylation of the nonadecamer (Ⅲ), ligation with the dodecamer(Ⅱ) and the 5'-phosphorylation of the ligation product formed; with one isolation step and obtained the 5'-phosphorylated 31mer(46-76) (Ⅳ) in an overall yield of 70%. Then the 31met(Ⅵ) as a donor was ligated with 3 times of decamer(Ⅰ) to form the 41met(36-76) (Ⅴ), the 3'-half molecule of tRNA_y~(Ala)). The yield was 67%. After 5'-phosphorylation, (Ⅴ) was ligated with the natural 5'-half molecule to form the semi-synthetic tRNA_y~(Ala)), which was biologically active, i. e. accepting and transferring (~3H)-alanine into p
