Abstract
Probes that covalently label protein targets facilitate the identification of ligand-binding sites. Lysine residues are prevalent in the proteome, making them attractive substrates for covalent probes. However, identifying electrophiles that undergo amine-specific, regioselective reactions with binding site lysine residues is challenging. Squarates can engage in two sequential conjugate addition-elimination reactions with amines. Nitrogen donation reduces the second reaction rate, making the mono squaramide a mild electrophile. We postulated that this mild electrophilicity would demand a longer residence time near the amine, affording higher selectivity for binding site lysines. Therefore, we compared the kinetics of squarate and monosquaramide amine substitution to alternative amine bioconjugation handles. The data revealed that N-hydroxy succinimidyl esters react 4 orders of magnitude faster, consistent with their labeling promiscuity. Squarate reactivity can be tuned by a substitution pattern. Electron-withdrawing groups on the vinylogous ester or amide increase reaction rates. Dithionosquarates react more rapidly than squarates, while vinylogous thioester analogs, dithiosquarates, react more slowly. We assessed squarate selectively using the UDP-sugar processing enzyme GlfT2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which possesses 21 surface-exposed lysines. The reaction predominately modified one lysine proximal to a binding site to afford covalent inhibition. These findings demonstrate the selectivity of squaric esters and squaramides, which is a critical feature for affinity-based chemoproteomic probes.

Abstract
We report a two-step validation approach to evaluate the suitability of metal-binding groups for targeting DNA damage-repair metalloenzymes using model enzyme SNM1A. A fragment-based screening approach was first used to identify metal-binding fragments suitable for targeting the enzyme. Effective fragments were then incorporated into oligonucleotides using the copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. These modified oligonucleotides were recognised by SNM1A at >1000-fold lower concentrations than their fragment counterparts. The exonuclease SNM1A is a key enzyme involved in the repair of interstrand crosslinks, a highly cytotoxic form of DNA damage. However, SNM1A and other enzymes of this class are poorly understood, as there is a lack of tools available to facilitate their study. Our novel approach of incorporating functional fragments into oligonucleotides is broadly applicable to generating modified oligonucleotide structures with high affinity for DNA damage-repair enzymes.

Abstract
Precise dissection of DNA-protein interactions is essential for elucidating the recognition basis, dynamics and gene regulation mechanism. However, global profiling of weak and dynamic DNA-protein interactions remains a long-standing challenge. Here, we establish the light-induced lysine (K) enabled crosslinking (LIKE-XL) strategy for spatiotemporal and global profiling of DNA-protein interactions. Harnessing unique abilities to capture weak and transient DNA-protein interactions, we demonstrate that LIKE-XL enables the discovery of low-affinity transcription-factor/DNA interactions via sequence-specific DNA baits, determining the binding sites for transcription factors that have been previously unknown. More importantly, we successfully decipher the dynamics of the transcription factor subproteome in response to drug treatment in a time-resolved manner, and find downstream target transcription factors from drug perturbations, providing insight into their dynamic transcriptional networks. The LIKE-XL strategy offers a complementary method to expand the DNA-protein profiling toolbox and map accurate DNA-protein interactomes that were previously inaccessible via non-covalent strategies, for better understanding of protein function in health and disease.

Abstract
Reactive RNA probes are useful for studying and identifying RNA-binding proteins. To that end, we designed and synthesized chloroacetamide-linked 7-deaza-ATP which was a good substrate for T7 RNA polymerase in in vitro transcription assay to synthesize reactive RNA probes bearing one or several reactive modifications. Modified RNA probes reacted with thiol-containing molecules as well as with cysteine- or histidine-containing peptides to form stable covalent products. They also reacted selectively with RNA-binding proteins to form cross-linked conjugates in high conversions thanks to proximity effect. Our modified nucleotide and RNA probes are promising tools for applications in RNA (bio)conjugations or RNA proteomics.

Abstract
Nucleic acids have been among the first targets for antitumor drugs and antibiotics. With the unveiling of new biological roles in regulation of gene expression, specific DNA and RNA structures have become very attractive targets, especially when the corresponding proteins are undruggable. Biophysical assays to assess target structure as well as ligand binding stoichiometry, affinity, specificity, and binding modes are part of the drug development process. Mass spectrometry offers unique advantages as a biophysical method owing to its ability to distinguish each stoichiometry present in a mixture. In addition, advanced mass spectrometry approaches (reactive probing, fragmentation techniques, ion mobility spectrometry, ion spectroscopy) provide more detailed information on the complexes. Here, we review the fundamentals of mass spectrometry and all its particularities when studying noncovalent nucleic acid structures, and then review what has been learned thanks to mass spectrometry on nucleic acid structures, self-assemblies (e.g., duplexes or G-quadruplexes), and their complexes with ligands.

Abstract
Many bioconjugation strategies for DNA oligonucleotides and antibodies suffer limitations, such as site-specificity, stoichiometry and hydrolytic instability of the conjugates, which makes them unsuitable for biological applications. Here, we report a new platform for the preparation of DNA-antibody bioconjugates with a simple benzoylacrylic acid pentafluorophenyl ester reagent. Benzoylacrylic-labelled oligonucleotides prepared with this reagent can be site-specifically conjugated to a range of proteins and antibodies through accessible cysteine residues. The homogeneity of the prepared DNA-antibody bioconjugates was confirmed by a new LC-MS protocol and the bioconjugate probes were used in fluorescence or super-resolution microscopy cell imaging experiments. This work demonstrates the versatility and robustness of our bioconjugation protocol that gives site-specific, well-defined and plasma-stable DNA-antibody bioconjugates for biological applications.

Abstract
We have designed and synthesized six different multivalent electrophiles as carbohydrate affinity labeling probes. Evaluation of the reactivity of the electrophiles against peanut agglutinin (PNA) and Ricinus communis agglutinin (RCA) showed that p- and m-aryl sulfonyl fluoride are effective protein reactive groups that label carbohydrate binding lectins in a ligand-dependent fashion at a nanomolar probe concentration. Analysis of the selectivity of affinity labeling in the presence of excess BSA as a nonspecific protein indicated that m-arylsulfonyl fluoride is a more selective protein-reactive group, albeit with attenuated reactivity. Further analysis showed that the labeling efficiency of the multivalent electrophilic probes can be improved by employing reaction conditions involving 25 °C instead of typically employed 4 °C. Both isomers of arylsulfonyl fluoride groups together represent promising affinity labels for target identification studies that could serve as more efficient alternatives to photoreactive groups.

Abstract
Linear or branched 1,3-diketone-linked thymidine 5'-O-mono- and triphosphate were synthesized through CuAAC click reaction of diketone-alkynes with 5-azidomethyl-dUMP or -dUTP. The triphosphates were good substrates for KOD XL DNA polymerase in primer extension synthesis of modified DNA. The nucleotide bearing linear 3,5-dioxohexyl group (HDO) efficiently reacted with arginine-containing peptides to form stable pyrimidine-linked conjugates, whereas the branched 2-acetyl-3-oxo-butyl (PDO) group was not reactive. Reaction with Lys or a terminal amino group formed enamine adducts that were prone to hydrolysis. This reactive HDO modification in DNA was used for bioconjugations and cross-linking with Arg-containing peptides or proteins (e.g. histones).

Abstract
We developed a new approach to selectively modify native proteins in their biological environment using electrophilic covalent aptamers. These aptamers are generated through introduction of a proximity-driven electrophile at specific nucleotide sites. Using thrombin as a proof-of-concept, we demonstrate that covalent aptamers can selectively transfer a variety of functional handles and/or irreversibly crosslink to the target protein. This approach offers broad programmability and high target specificity. Furthermore, it addresses issues common to aptamers such as instability towards endogenous nucleases and residence times during target engagement. Covalent aptamers are new tools that enable specific protein modification and sensitive protein detection. Moreover, they provide prolonged, nuclease-resistant enzyme inhibition.

Abstract
2-Formyl-2'-deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dCHO ATP) was synthesized and tested as a substrate in enzymatic synthesis of DNA modified in the minor groove with a reactive aldehyde group. The multistep synthesis of dCHO ATP was based on the preparation of protected 2-dihydroxyethyl-2'-deoxyadenosine intemediate, which was triphosphorylated and converted to aldehyde through oxidative cleavage. The dCHO ATP triphosphate was a moderate substrate for KOD XL DNA polymerase, and was used for enzymatic synthesis of some sequences using primer extension (PEX). On the other hand, longer sequences (31-mer) with higher number of modifications, or sequences with modifications at adjacent positions did not give full extension. Single-nucleotide extension followed by PEX was used for site-specific incorporation of one aldehyde-linked adenosine into a longer 49-mer sequence. The reactive formyl group was used for cross-linking with peptides and proteins using reductive amination and for fluorescent labelling through oxime formation with an AlexaFluor647-linked hydroxylamine.

Abstract
Organometallic reagents enable practical strategies for bioconjugation. Innovations in the design of water-soluble ligands and the enhancement of reaction rates have allowed for chemoselective cross-coupling reactions of peptides and proteins to be carried out in water. There are currently no organometallic-based methods for oligonucleotide bioconjugation to other biomolecules. Here we report bifunctional palladium(II)-oxidative addition complexes (OACs) as reagents for high-yielding oligonucleotide bioconjugation reactions. These bifunctional OACs react chemoselectively with amine-modified oligonucleotides to generate the first isolable, bench stable oligonucleotide-palladium(II) OACs. These complexes undergo site-selective C-S arylation with a broad range of native thiol-containing biomolecules at low micromolar concentrations in under one hour. This approach provided oligonucleotide-peptide, oligonucleotide-protein, oligonucleotide-small molecule, and oligonucleotide-oligonucleotide conjugates in >80 % yield and afforded conjugation of multiple copies of oligonucleotides onto a monoclonal antibody.

Abstract
We report chemoselective and modular peptide bioconjugation using stoichiometric amounts of 4-halocoumarin and arylsulfonate agents that undergo metal-free C(sp2)-heteroatom bond formation at micromolar concentrations. The underlying ipso-substitution click chemistry is irreversible and generates stable and inherently fluorescent bioconjugates, and the broad selection of coumarin tags offers high labeling flexibility and versatility. Different coumarins and arylsulfonates can be selectively attached to amino and thiol groups in the small peptides glutathione and ornipressin, and both free as well as latent thiols captured in disulfide bridges can be targeted if desired. The broad utility, ease of use, storage, and preparation of 4-halocoumarins and arylsulfonates are very attractive features that extend currently available dual bioconjugation capabilities. We report chemoselective and modular peptide bioconjugation using stoichiometric amounts of 4-halocoumarin and arylsulfonate agents that undergo metal-free C(sp2)-heteroatom bond formation at micromolar concentrations.![]()

Abstract
Xenobiotic nucleic acids (XNAs) are chemically modified nucleic acid analogues with potential applications in nucleic acid-based therapeutics including nucleic acid aptamers, ribozymes, small interfering RNAs, and antisense oligonucleotides. We have developed a promising XNA for therapeutic uses, 2',4'-bridged nucleic acid (2',4'-BNA), also known as locked nucleic acid (LNA). Unlike the rational design of small interfering and antisense oligonucleotides, the development of LNA aptamers and catalysts requires genetically engineered polymerases that enable the synthesis of LNA from DNA and the converse reverse transcription. However, no LNA decoders or encoders with sufficient performance have been developed. In this study, we developed variants of KOD DNA polymerase, a family B DNA polymerase derived from Thermococcus kodakarensis KOD1, which are effective LNA decoders and encoders, via structural analyses. KOD DGLNK (KOD: N210D/Y409G/A485L/D614N/E664K) enabled LNA synthesis from DNA (DNA → LNA), and KOD DLK (KOD: N210D/A485L/E664K) enabled LNA reverse transcription to DNA (LNA → DNA). Both variants exhibited greatly improved efficiency and accuracy. Notably, we synthesized LNAs longer than one kilobase using KOD DGLNK. We also showed that these variants can accept 2'-O-methyl (2'-OMe), a common modification for therapeutic uses. Here, we also show that LNA and 2'-OMe mix aptamer can be practically obtained via SELEX. The variants can be used as powerful tools for creating XNA aptamers and catalysts to completely eliminate the natural species, DNA and RNA.

Abstract
To understand the structure and ensuing function of RNA in various cellular processes, researchers greatly rely on traditional as well as contemporary labeling technologies to devise efficient biochemical and biophysical platforms. In this context, bioorthogonal chemistry based on chemoselective reactions that work under biologically benign conditions has emerged as a state-of-the-art labeling technology for functionalizing biopolymers. Implementation of this technology on sugar, protein, lipid and DNA is fairly well established. However, its use in labeling RNA has posed challenges due to the fragile nature of RNA. In this feature article, we provide an account of bioorthogonal chemistry-based RNA labeling techniques developed in our lab along with a detailed discussion on other technologies put forward recently. In particular, we focus on the development and applications of covalent methods to label RNA by transcription and posttranscription chemo-enzymatic approaches. It is expected that existing as well as new bioorthogonal functionalization methods will immensely advance our understanding of RNA and support the development of RNA-based diagnostic and therapeutic tools.

Abstract
Squaramate-linked 2'-deoxycytidine 5'-O-triphosphate was synthesized and found to be good substrate for KOD XL DNA polymerase in primer extension or PCR synthesis of modified DNA. The resulting squaramate-linked DNA reacts with primary amines to form a stable diamide linkage. This reaction was used for bioconjugations of DNA with Cy5 and Lys-containing peptides. Squaramate-linked DNA formed covalent cross-links with histone proteins. This reactive nucleotide has potential for other bioconjugations of nucleic acids with amines, peptides or proteins without need of any external reagent.
