Abstract
In this work, we report on the Photoinduced Electron Transfer (PET) reaction between a donor (adenine analogue) and an acceptor (3-methoxychromone dye, 3MC) in the context of designing efficient fluorescent probes as DNA sensors. Firstly, Gibbs energy was investigated in disconnected donor-acceptor systems by Rehm-Weller equation. The oxidation potential of the adenine derivative was responsible for exergonicity of the PET reaction in separated combinations. Then, the PET reaction in donor-π-acceptor conjugates was investigated using steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, acid-mediated PET inhibition and transient absorption techniques. In conjugated systems, PET is a favorable pathway of fluorescent quenching when an electron-rich adenine analogue (d7A) was connected to the fluorophore (3MC). We found that formation of ground-state complexes even at nm concentration range dominated the dye photophysics and generated poorly emissive species likely through intermolecular PET from d7A to 3MC. On the other hand, solution acidification disrupts complexation and turns on the dye emission. Bridging an electron-poor adenine analogue with high oxidation potential (8 d7A) to 3MC presenting low reduction potential is another alternative to prevent complex formation and produce highly emissive monomer conjugates.

Abstract
Fluorescence labeling and probing are fundamental techniques for nucleic acid analysis and quantification. However, new fluorescent probes and approaches are urgently needed in order to accurately determine structural and conformational dynamics of DNA and RNA at the level of single nucleobases/base pairs, and to probe the interactions between nucleic acids with proteins. This review describes the means by which to achieve these goals using nucleobase replacement or modification with advanced fluorescent dyes that respond by the changing of their fluorescence parameters to their local environment (altered polarity, hydration, flipping dynamics, and formation/breaking of hydrogen bonds).

Abstract
The fluorescent nucleobase surrogate M (2-thienyl-3-hydroxychromone fluorophore) when imbedded in DNA opposite an abasic site exhibits a two colour response highly sensitive to environment changes and base composition. Its two colour emission originates from an excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), which converts the excited normal N* form into its T* tautomer. To get deeper insight on the spectroscopic properties of M in DNA duplexes, quantum chemical calculations were performed on M stacked with different base pairs in model trimers extracted from MD simulations. The photophysics of M in duplexes appeared to be governed by stacking interactions as well as charge and hole transfer. Indeed, stacking of M in DNA screens M from H-bonding with water molecules, which favours ESIPT and thus, the emission of the T* form. With A and T flanking bases, the electronic densities in the frontier MOs were localized on M, in line with its effective absorption and emission. In addition, reduction of the free rotation between the thienyl and chromone groups together with the shielding of the dye from water molecules largely explain its enhanced quantum yield in comparison to the free M in solution. By contrast, the localisation of the electron density on the flanking G residues in the ground state and the energetically favorable hole transfer from M to G in the excited state explains the reduced quantum yield of M sandwiched between CG pairs. Finally, the much higher brightness of M as compared to 2-aminopurine when flanked by A and T residues could be related to the much stronger oscillator strength of its S0 → S1 transition and the ineffective charge transfer from M to A or T residues. The fluorescent nucleobase surrogate M (2-thienyl-3-hydroxychromone fluorophore) when imbedded in DNA opposite an abasic site exhibits a two colour response highly sensitive to environment changes and base composition.![]()

Exploration of the Fluorescent Properties and the Modulated Activities against Sirtuin Fluorogenic Assays of Chromenone-Derived Natural Products. Molecules 2018; 23:molecules23051063.

Abstract
Chromenone-derived natural products include chromones (flavone, isoflavone) and coumarins. Chromenone compounds not only exhibit impressive biological activities, but also are an important resource of experimentally used fluorophores, such as, 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (AMC). Various chromenone compounds have reported to have weak fluorescence, and this has the potential to interfere with the measurements during AMC fluorogenic assays and result in non-robust assay readouts. Several flavones and isoflavones were found as SIRT1 activators, while fluorogenic sirtuin assays utilized AMC labelled peptides as the substrates. In this study we investigated whether the fluorescent properties of chromenone-derived natural products interrupt the measurement of SIRT1/2 modulated activities. We found that the reported SIRT1 activators: flavones were detected with the SIRT1 activation activity, but isoflavones were not detected with SIRT1 activation activity, and instead that they were found to be fluorogenic compounds. Another chromenone compound, osthole, exhibited a moderate SIRT2 inhibitory activity with an IC50 of 10 μM. In conclusion, the fluorescent properties of these chromenone compounds do affect the measurement of the sirtuin activities of both inhibitors and activators. However, if the possible fluorescence properties are mitigated in the assay readout, these fluorogenic assays enable the screening of activity modulators.

Abstract
The excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) of 3-hydroxyflavone derivatives results in a fluorescence spectrum composed of two emission bands, the relative intensity of which is strongly influenced by the interaction with the local environment. We use time-resolved fluorescence and ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopies to investigate the photophysics of 4'-methoxy-3-hydroxyflavone in different solvents characterized by various polarities and hydrogen (H) bonding capabilities. We evidence that in this compound, the ESIPT reaction rate varies by more than 3 orders of magnitude, depending on the H-bonding capability of its local environment. This remarkable property is attributed to the moderate electron-donating strength of the 4'-methoxy substituent, and turns this fluorescent dye into a very promising fluorescent probe of biomolecular structures and interactions, where local structural heterogeneity may possibly be revealed by resolving a distribution of ESIPT reaction rates.

Abstract
The photodynamics of 3-hydroxychromone in its first-excited singlet electronic state (bright state of ππ* character) is investigated with special emphasis given to two types of reaction pathways: the excited-state intramolecular-proton-transfer coordinate and the hydrogen-torsion coordinate linking the excited cis and trans isomers. A newly-found conical intersection with the second-excited singlet electronic state (dark state of nπ* character) is suspected to be, to some extent, the reason for the slower rate constant. This hypothesis based on quantum-chemistry calculations is supported by quantum-dynamics simulations in full dimensionality. They show significant transfer of electronic population and provide consistently a vibronic interpretation for the forbidden band in the UV absorption spectrum.

Abstract
Recently, a 3-hydroxychromone based nucleoside 3HCnt has been developed as a highly environment-sensitive nucleoside surrogate to investigate protein-DNA interactions. When it is incorporated in DNA, the probe is up to 50-fold brighter than 2-aminopurine, the reference fluorescent nucleoside. Although the insertion of 3HCnt in DNA was previously shown to not alter the overall DNA structure, the possibility of the probe inducing local effects cannot be ruled out. Hence, a systematic structural and dynamic study is required to unveil the 3HCnt's limitations and to properly interpret the data obtained with this universal probe. Here, we investigated by NMR a 12-mer duplex, in which a central adenine was replaced by 3HCnt. The chemical shifts variations and nOe contacts revealed that the 3HCnt is well inserted in the DNA double helix with extensive stacking interactions with the neighbor base pairs. These observations are in excellent agreement with the steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence properties indicating that the 3HCnt fluorophore is protected from the solvent and does not exhibit rotational motion. The 3HCnt insertion in DNA is accompanied by the extrusion of the opposite nucleobase from the double helix. Molecular dynamics simulations using NMR-restraints demonstrated that 3HCnt fluorophore exhibits only translational dynamics. Taken together, our data showed an excellent intercalation of 3HCnt in the DNA double helix, which is accompanied by localized perturbations. This confirms 3HCnt as a highly promising tool for nucleic acid labeling and sensing.

Abstract
Nucleoside analogues are among the most known drugs commonly used in antiviral and anticancer chemotherapies. Among them, those featuring a five-membered ring nucleobase are of utmost interest such as the anti-cancer agent AICAR or the anti-viral drug ribavirin. Despite its low activity in vitro in different cell lines, AICAR is under clinical development for several pathologies, thanks to its original mode of action. Indeed, AICAR induced autophagy cell death and is able, following this mechanism, to circumvent resistance to apoptotic drugs including kinase inhibitors currently on the market. To improve the activity of AICAR, we report herein an efficient synthesis of new series of sulfonamide-4-substituted-1,2,3-triazolyl nucleosides using a Cu-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. All these molecules have been fully characterized and evaluated against two aggressive tumor cell lines, RCC4 and MDA-MB-231. Among them, nucleoside analogue 5i belonging to the ribose series was found to be 19 to 66-fold more active than AICAR. Western blot analyses on RCC4 cells showed that 5i displayed an interesting mode of action by inducing both apoptosis and autophagy cell death, making therefore this class of molecules highly promising for further hit-to-lead optimization.

Abstract
DNA methylation patterns, which are critical for gene expression, are replicated by DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) and ubiquitin-like containing PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) proteins. This replication is initiated by the recognition of hemimethylated CpG sites and further flipping of methylated cytosines (mC) by the Set and Ring Associated (SRA) domain of UHRF1. Although crystallography has shed light on the mechanism of mC flipping by SRA, tools are required to monitor in real time how SRA reads DNA and flips the modified nucleobase. To accomplish this aim, we have utilized two distinct fluorescent nucleobase surrogates, 2-thienyl-3-hydroxychromone nucleoside (3HCnt) and thienoguanosine (thG), incorporated at different positions into hemimethylated (HM) and nonmethylated (NM) DNA duplexes. Large fluorescence changes were associated with mC flipping in HM duplexes, showing the outstanding sensitivity of both nucleobase surrogates to the small structural changes accompanying base flipping. Importantly, the nucleobase surrogates marginally affected the structure of the duplex and its affinity for SRA at positions where they were responsive to base flipping, illustrating their promise as nonperturbing probes for monitoring such events. Stopped-flow studies using these two distinct tools revealed the fast kinetics of SRA binding and sliding to NM duplexes, consistent with its reader role. In contrast, the kinetics of mC flipping was found to be much slower in HM duplexes, substantially increasing the lifetime of CpG-bound UHRF1, and thus the probability of recruiting DNMT1 to faithfully duplicate the DNA methylation profile. The fluorescence-based approach using these two different fluorescent nucleoside surrogates advances the mechanistic understanding of the UHRF1/DNMT1 tandem and the development of assays for the identification of base flipping inhibitors.

Abstract
A nucleoside bearing a solvatochromic push-pull fluorene fluorophore (dCFL ) was designed and synthesized by the Sonogashira coupling of alkyne-linked fluorene 8 with 5-iodo-2'-deoxycytidine. The fluorene building block 8 and labeled nucleoside dCFL exerted bright fluorescence with significant solvatochromic effect providing emission maxima ranging from 421 to 544 nm and high quantum yields even in highly polar solvents, including water. The solvatochromism of 8 was studied by DFT and ADC(2) calculations to show that, depending on the polarity of the solvent, emission either from the planar or the twisted conformation of the excited state can occur. The nucleoside was converted to its triphosphate variant dCFLTP which was found to be a good substrate for DNA polymerases suitable for the enzymatic synthesis of oligonucleotide or DNA probes by primer extension or PCR. The fluorene-linked DNA can be used as fluorescent probes for DNA-protein (p53) or DNA-lipid interactions, exerting significant color changes visible even to the naked eye. They also appear to be suitable for time-dependent fluorescence shift studies on DNA, yielding information on DNA hydration and dynamics.

Abstract
Our work surveyed experimental and theoretical investigations to construct highly emissive D-π-A (D=donor, A=acceptor) fluorenes. The synthetic routes were optimised to be concise and gram-scalable. The molecular design was first rationalised by varying the electron-withdrawing group from an aldehyde, ketotriazole or succinyl to methylenemalonitrile or benzothiadiazole. The electron-donating group was next varied from aliphatic or aromatic amines to saturated cyclic amines ranging from aziridine to azepane. Spectroscopic studies correlated with TD-DFT calculations provided the optimised structures. The selected push-pull dyes exhibited visible absorptions, significant brightness, important solvatofluorochromism, mega-Stokes shifts (>250 nm) and dramatic shifts in emission to the near-infrared. The current library includes the comprehensive characterization of 16 prospective dyes for fluorescence applications. Among them, several fluorene derivatives bearing different conjugation anchors were tested for coupling and demonstrated to preserve the photophysical responses once further bound.

Abstract
A small library of six polarity-sensitive fluorescent dyes, nicknamed MediaChrom, was prepared. This class of dyes is characterized by a pyrimidoindolone core fitted out with a conjugated push-pull system and a carboxy linker for a conceivable coupling with biomolecules. The optimized eight-step synthetic strategy involves a highly chemo- and regioselective gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reaction. The photophysical properties of MediaChrom dyes have been evaluated in-depth. In particular, the MediaChrom bearing a diethylamino as an electron-donating group and a trifluoromethyl as an electron-withdrawing group displays the most interesting and advantageous spectroscopic features (e.g., absorption and emission in the visible range and a good quantum yield). Promising results in terms of sensitivity have been obtained in vitro on this dye as a membrane/lipophilic probe and as a peptide fluorescent label.

Abstract
When excited with high energy quanta, specially designed 3-hydroxychromone derivatives demonstrate dramatic enhancement of the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction in obvious violation of Kasha's rule.
We report unusual photophysical properties observed on two newly designed 3-hydroxychromone derivatives exhibiting the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction. The efficiency of ESIPT reaction is greatly enhanced upon excitation with high energy quanta to Sn (n > 1) levels in low-polarity solvents. Based on detailed analyses of excitation and emission spectra as well as time-resolved emission kinetics we derive that conditions, in which this phenomenon contradicting Kasha's rule is observed, are quite different from that for observation of anti-Kasha emission.

Abstract
Pyrene-labeled 3-deaza-2'-deoxyadenosine comprising a non-π-conjugated linker (py3z)A (1) was synthesized and its photophysical properties were investigated. Oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) probes containing (py3z)A (1) exhibited remarkable fluorescence quenching only when the opposite base of the complementary strand was the perfectly matched thymine. Such fluorescence quenching-based ODN probes exhibited excellent on-off switching properties, making them useful tools for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping and for the identification of target genes and structural studies of nucleic acids.

Abstract
Fluorescence-based technologies play a pivotal role in various biomedical applications. Here we report an efficient route to a new class of fluorophores, indolizino[3,2-c]quinolines, via the oxidative Pictet-Spengler cyclization strategy. The condensation of several 2-methylpyridines with 2-bromo-2'-nitroacetophenone allowed for the rapid assembly of indolizines with a 2-nitrophenyl group at the C2 position. The subsequent reduction of the nitro group under mild conditions followed by oxidative Pictet-Spengler cyclization with various aryl aldehydes in the presence of a catalytic amount of FeCl3 furnished the indolizino[3,2-c]quinolines in good overall yields. We also examined the photophysical properties of this new series of polyheterocyclic compounds. Several indolizino[3,2-c]quinolines were found to have unique and desirable optical properties, suggesting that these compounds may be suitable for use as prospective fluorescent probes in aqueous systems.

Second-generation fluorescent quadracyclic adenine analogues: environment-responsive probes with enhanced brightness. Chemistry 2015; 21:4039-48. [PMID: 25641628 DOI: 10.1002/chem.201405759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2014] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Fluorescent base analogues comprise a group of increasingly important molecules for the investigation of nucleic acid structure, dynamics, and interactions with other molecules. Herein, we report on the quantum chemical calculation aided design, synthesis, and characterization of four new putative quadracyclic adenine analogues. The compounds were efficiently synthesized from a common intermediate through a two-step pathway with the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling as the key step. Two of the compounds, qAN1 and qAN4, display brightnesses (εΦF) of 1700 and 2300, respectively, in water and behave as wavelength-ratiometric pH probes under acidic conditions. The other two, qAN2 and qAN3, display lower brightnesses but exhibit polarity-sensitive dual-band emissions that could prove useful to investigate DNA structural changes induced by DNA-protein or -drug interactions. The four qANs are very promising microenvironment-sensitive fluorescent adenine analogues that display considerable brightness for such compounds.
