Abstract
Chemical modifications of the mRNA cap structure can enhance the stability, translational properties, and half-life of mRNAs, thereby altering the therapeutic properties of synthetic mRNA. However, cap structure modification is challenging because of the instability of the 5'-5'-triphosphate bridge and N7-methylguanosine. The Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between boronic acid and halogen compound is a mild, convenient, and potentially applicable approach for modifying biomolecules. Herein, we describe two methods to synthesize C8-modified cap structures using the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. Both methods employed phosphorimidazolide chemistry to form the 5',5'-triphosphate bridge. However, in the first method, the introduction of the modification via the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction at the C8 position occurs postsynthetically, at the dinucleotide level, whereas in the second method, the modification was introduced at the level of the nucleoside 5'-monophosphate, and later, the triphosphate bridge was formed. Both methods were successfully applied to incorporate six different groups (methyl, cyclopropyl, phenyl, 4-dimethylaminophenyl, 4-cyanophenyl, and 1-pyrene) into either the m7G or G moieties of the cap structure. Aromatic substituents at the C8-position of guanosine form a push-pull system that exhibits environment-sensitive fluorescence. We demonstrated that this phenomenon can be harnessed to study the interaction with cap-binding proteins, e.g., eIF4E, DcpS, Nudt16, and snurportin.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression in cells; high levels of expression are associated with various cancers. In this paper, we describe PyA-modified nucleic acid probes that can detect intracellular miRNAs by forming DNA/RNA hybrid three-way junction structures containing a fluorescent scaffold-a so-called G-cluster. This G-cluster featured two mismatched strands, four guanine residues, and one fluorescent adenine residue having a pyrene moiety covalently connected at the 8-position through an acetylene linker. The scaffold underwent a dramatic shift in its emission wavelength when two mismatched strands formed a duplex, similar to the behavior of an adenine pentad system (A-cluster). We applied the G-cluster scaffold in a three-way junction system to probe for miRNAs; its red-shifted fluorescence intensity and stability were greater than those reported previously for A-cluster three-way junction probes. Furthermore, confocal microscopy of cancer cell lines revealed bright fluorescence emissions in response to the miRNAs in the cells. Thus, this system can be applied intracellularly as a potential fluorescent probe for the detection of various biologically important nucleic acids.

Abstract
With the goal of developing a quencher-free probe composed of an artificial nucleic acid, the fluorescent nucleobase analogue 5-(perylenylethynyl)uracil (Pe U), which was incorporated into totally artificial serinol nucleic acid (SNA) as a substitute for thymine, has been synthesized. In the context of a 12-mer duplex with RNA, these fluorophores reduce duplex stability slightly compared with that of an SNA without Pe U modification; thus suggesting that structural distortion is not induced by the modification. If two Pe Us were incorporated at separate positions in an SNA, the fluorescent emission at λ≈490 nm was clearly enhanced upon hybridization with complementary RNA. A quencher-free SNA linear probe containing three Pe Us, each separated by six nucleobases, has been designed. Detection of target RNA with high sensitivity and discrimination of a single-base mismatch has also been demonstrated.

Abstract
Herein, we describe an extended version of a fluorescence probe for detecting miRNAs through the novel application of a PyA-cluster system. By testing various (CG)n sequences in the middle of the oligonucleotide strand of the probe, we obtained an optimal sequence that formed a double-three-way-junction structure, with two PyA units positioned close together, in the presence of the target miRNA. This system readily detected the locations of target miRNAs in living cells and allowed visualization of structural changes through variations in the color of the fluorescence.

Abstract
2'-deoxyfuranouridine derivatives presenting various aryl groups have been synthesized through Cu(I)-catalyzed intramolecular cyclizations. Moreover, corresponding pyrrolo-dC derivatives have been synthesized and both families of compounds thoroughly characterized using UV/vis and fluorescence spectroscopy as well as time-dependent density functional theory calculations. The photophysical characterization, show that our newly synthesized derivatives of the important pyrrolo-dC family have high fluorescence quantum yields (QYs) and brightness values. Pyrrolo-dC derivative, 3a, shows an environment sensitive QY of up to >60% and brightness of almost 3000, in low polarity solvents and excitation and emission maxima between 365-381 nm and 479-510 nm, respectively, in solvents of different polarities. Two other derivatives, 3b and 3c, show high QYs and brightness values of up to 3300 that are fairly insensitive to their microenvironment. These promising photophysical features suggest future applicability as fluorescent nucleobase analogs.

Abstract
A combination of fluorophore and nucleobase through a π-conjugated rigid linker integrates the base pairing and the fluorescence change into a single event. Such base discriminating fluorophore can change its fluorescence as a direct response to the base pairing event and therefore have advantages over tethered labels or base surrogates lacking the hydrogen-bonding ability. 8-(Pyrene-1-yl)ethynyl-adenine (APyE) has been extensively used as fluorescence labels in DNA and LNA, but it showed little discrimination between different nucleobases. Herein we investigated the synthesis, base pairing ability and optical properties of APyE in pyrrolidinyl peptide nucleic acid - a DNA mimic that shows much stronger affinity and specificity towards DNA than natural oligonucleotides. The APyE in PNA pairs specifically with thymine in the DNA strand, and resulted in 1.5-5.2-fold enhanced and blue-shifted fluorescence emission. Fluorescence quenching was observed in the presence of mismatched base or abasic site directly opposite to the APyE. The behavior of APyE in acpcPNA is distinctively different from DNA whereby a fluorescence was increased selectively upon duplex formation with complementary DNA and therefore emphasizing the unique advantages of using PNA as alternative oligonucleotide probes. Applications as color-shifting probe for detection of trinucleotide repeats in DNA were demonstrated, and the performance of the probe was further improved by combination with reduced graphene oxide as an external nanoquencher.

Abstract
A series of novel nucleotide phosphoramidites were rationally designed and synthesized and were then site-specifically incorporated in DNA oligonucleotide probes with pyrene-modified phosphate. These oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) probes almost have no inherent fluorescence emission with pyrene modification at 3' phosphate of corresponding nucleotides as a result of the photoinduced electron-transfer quenching effect of nucleobases (thymidine ∼ cytidine > guanosine ≫ adenosine). However, strong fluorescence emission was observed only with the perfectly matched duplex for the probes with pyrene modified at 3' phosphate of thymidine and cytidine. These rationally designed ODN probes successfully worked as "turn on" fluorescence oligonucleotide sensors for single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and were used for detecting a single BRAF mutation site (V600E) of human melanoma.

Abstract
The syntheses of 2'-O-(pyren-1-ylmethyl)uridine phosphoramidite, 2'-O-(pyren-1-ylmethyl)adenosine phosphoramidite, and multiple pyrene-attached oligo-RNAs are described in this unit. The 2'-O-(pyren-1-ylmethyl)nucleosides are converted into the corresponding 2'-O-(pyren-1-ylmethyl)nucleoside 3'-phosphoramidites, which can be incorporated into the specific position of oligo-RNAs by solid-phase oligonucleotide synthesis. The multiple pyrene-attached oligo-RNA forms an A-form duplex with a complementary multiple pyrene-attached oligo-RNA; the pyrenes are associated with π-stacking along the outside of the duplex.

Abstract
A single fluorophore based multi-color emission probing system has been developed in the current work. dA(py) was used as the fluorophore, which was incorporated at the end of folded oligonucleotide with increasing number. Depending on the number of dA(py) three different color emissions were observed, viz. blue, green and red. These interesting color patterns were further used for the SNP typing of DNA. Every folded oligonucleotide with different number of dA(py)s could discriminate the full matched target sequence from one base mismatched and two base mismatched sequences. Furthermore, this probing system has a simple structure and also exhibited large Stokes shifted signal for discriminating the target DNA.

Abstract
Nucleic acid fluorescent probes are playing increasingly important roles in biological sensing in recent years. In addition to the conventional functions of single-stranded DNA/RNA to hybridize with their complementary strands, affinity nucleic acids (aptamers) with specific target binding properties have also been developed, which has greatly broadened the application of nucleic acid fluorescent probes to the detection of a large variety of analytes, including small molecules, proteins, ions, and even whole cells. Another chemical property of nucleic acids is to act as substrates for various nucleic acid enzymes. This property can be utilized not only to detect those enzymes and screen their inhibitors, but also employed to develop effective signal amplification systems, which implies extensive applications. This review mainly covers the biosensing methods based on the above three types of nucleic acid fluorescent probes. The most widely used intensity-based biosensing assays are covered first, including nucleic acid probe-based signal amplification methods. Then fluorescence lifetime, fluorescence anisotropy, and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy assays are introduced, respectively. As a rapidly developing field, fluorescence imaging approaches are also briefly summarized.

Abstract
5-(1-Naphthalenylethynyl)-2'-deoxyuridine ((N)U) and 5-[(4-cyano-1-naphthalenyl)ethynyl]-2'-deoxyuridine ((CN)U) were synthesized and incorporated into oligodeoxynucleotides. Fluorescence emissions of modified duplexes containing double (N)U were efficiently quenched depending upon the sequence pattern of the naphthalenes in DNA major groove, as compared to the duplex possessing single (N)U. When one of the naphthalene moieties has a cyano substituent, the exciplex emission from the chromophores in DNA major groove was observed at longer wavelength.

Abstract
We demonstrated an intriguing method to discriminate adenine by incident appearance of an intense new emission via exciplex formation in hybridization of target DNA with newly designed fluorescent 8-arylethynylated deoxyguanosine derivatives. We described the synthesis of such highly electron donating fluorescent guanosine derivatives and their incorporation into DNA oligomers which may be used for the structural study and the fluorometric analysis of nucleic acids.

Abstract
The self-assembly of 2,4,6-tris(pyridin-4-yl)-1,3,5-triazine (tpt) triangular panels with p-cymene (pPr(i)C(6)H(4)Me) ruthenium building blocks and 2,5-dioxydo-1,4-benzoquinonato (dobq) or 5,8-dioxydo-1,4-naphthoquinonato (donq) bridges, in the presence of a pyrenyl-nucleoside derivatives (pyreneR), affords the triangular prismatic host-guest compounds [(pyrene-R)⊂Ru(6)(pPr(i)C(6)H(4)Me)(6)(tpt)(2)(dobq)(3)](6+) ([(pyrene-R)⊂1](6+)) and [(pyrene-R)⊂Ru(6)(pPr(i)C(6)H(4)Me)(6)(tpt)(2)(donq)(3)](6+) ([(pyrene-R)⊂2](6+)), respectively. The inclusion of six monosubstitutedpyrenyl-nucleosides (pyrene-R1 = 5'-(1-pyrenyl butanoate)-2'-deoxyuridine, pyrene-R2 = 5-fluoro-5'-(1-pyrenyl butanoate)-2'-deoxyuridine, pyrene-R3 = 5'-{N-[1-oxo-4-(1-pyrenyl)butyl]-glycyl}-2'-deoxyuridine, pyrene-R4 = 5-fluoro-5'-{N-[1-oxo-4-(1-pyrenyl)butyl]-glycyl}-2'-deoxyuridine, pyrene-R5 = 5-fluoro-5'-{N-[1-oxo-4-(1-pyrenyl)butyl]-phenylalanyl}-2'-deoxyvuridine, pyrene-R6 = 5-fluoro-5'-{N-[1-oxo-4-(1-pyrenyl)butyl]-phenylalanyl}-2'-deoxyuridine) has been accomplished. The carceplex nature of [(pyrene-R)⊂1](6+) with the pyrenyl moiety firmly encapsulated in the hydrophobic cavity of the cage with the nucleoside groups pointing outward was confirmed by NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), while the host-guest nature of [(pyrene-R)⊂2](6+) was studied in solution by NMR techniques. In contrast to the floxuridine compounds used in the clinic, the host-guest complexes are highly water-soluble. Consequently, the cytotoxicities of these water-soluble compounds have been established using human ovarian A2780 and A2780cisR cancer cells. All the host-guest systems are more cytotoxic than the empty cages alone [1][CF(3)SO(3)](6) (IC(50) = 23 μM) and [2][CF(3)SO(3)](6) (IC(50) = 10 μM), the most active compound [pyrene-R4⊂1][CF(3)SO(3)](6)being 2 orders of magnitude more cytotoxic (IC(50) = 0.3 μM) on these human ovarian cancer cell lines (A2780 and A2780cisR).

Abstract
The photophysics of pyrene attached to an adenine base within RNA single strands and duplexes is examined with respect to the position of the pyrene within the strand and the number of pyrenes attached to one duplex. Compounds with pyrenes intercalating sequence specifically are examined, as well as a doubly modified compound, where the two pyrenes are located close enough to each other for significant excimer interaction. Femtosecond transient absorption measurements and time correlated single photon counting measurements allow a thorough examination of the local influences on the pyrene photophysics. Our results suggest that optical excitation establishes an equilibration between two molecular states of different spectroscopic properties and lifetimes that are coupled only via the excited state as a gateway. One of them is a neutral pyrene-adenine excited state, S*, while the second one is connected to an excited charge transfer state, S*(CT). In all compounds, an ultrafast sub-ps decay from a higher excited state into the lowest excited state S* occurs, and an excited charge transfer species S*(CT) is formed within picoseconds. The fluorescence behavior of the pyrene-modified adenine, however, is strongly dependent on RNA conformation. Both S* and S*(CT) states are fluorescent, and decay within hundreds of picoseconds and approximately 2 ns, respectively. The ratio between S* and S*(CT) fluorescence depends strongly on pyrene intercalation, and it is found that the S* state is quenched selectively upon intercalation of the pyrene into RNA. The doubly modified duplex exhibits an additional fluorescent state with a lifetime of 18.7 ns, which is associated with the pyrene excimer state. This state coexists with a significant population of the pyrene monomer, since the characteristic features of the latter can still be observed. Formation of the excimer occurs on femtosecond time scales. The pyrene label thus provides a sensitive tool to monitor the local structural dynamics of RNA with the chromophore acting as a molecular beacon.

A series of short RNA duplexes containing one or two 1-ethynylpyrene-modified adenine bases was synthesised. The melting behaviour of these duplexes was examined by monitoring temperature-dependent pyrene fluorescence. In the singly modified RNA duplexes, the bases flanking the ethynylpyrene-rA were varied to examine the sequence specificity of the fluorescence change of pyrene upon RNA hybridisation. Because an increase in pyrene fluorescence upon melting of the duplex can be correlated with intercalation of pyrene, and a decrease is usually associated with the position of pyrene outside the strand, a relationship between the flanking bases and the tendency of the dye to intercalate has been established. It was found that pyrene intercalation is less likely to take place if the modified base is flanked only by A-U base pairs. Flanking G-C base pairs, even only in the 5'-direction of the modified base, will favour intercalation. In addition, we examined a doubly modified compound that had a pyrene located on each strand. The spectra indicated that the two pyrenes were close enough for interaction. Upon melting of the strand, a fluorescence blue shift corresponding to the dissociation of the pyrene-pyrene complex could be observed in addition to the intensity effect already known from the singly modified compounds. Two melting curves based on the different properties of the fluorophore could be extracted, leading to different melting points corresponding to the global duplex melting and to the change of local pyrene environment, respectively.

Abstract
Homogeneous oligodeoxyguanylates incorporating small-molecule intercalator pyrene moieties in a 1,5 relationship form various structures of dimer, trimer, tetramer and internal hairpin form that are yellowish in color because of the intermolecular interactions between the pyrene units.

Abstract
We have synthesized various substituted 8-arylethynylated 2'-deoxyguanosine derivatives. Among them, acetyl substituted deoxyguanosine analogue 4c showed a remarkable solvent dependent fluorescence property, that is, an intense fluorescence in non-polar solvents but extremely weak fluorescence in polar solvents like methanol. By using solvatofluorochromic deoxyguanosine analogue 4c, we have developed highly thymine (T) selective fluorescent DNA probes that can sense T opposite 4c in a target DNA regardless of the flanking sequences. We were able to demonstrate that 4c can be used as a T specific base-discriminating fluorescent (BDF) nucleoside in homogeneous fluorescence assay.
