Abstract
A cyclic nucleoside has been designed and synthesized to serve as a conformationally fixed building block for the development of functional oligonucleotides. The bridge was introduced between the nucleobase and the 5'-position to fix the rotation around the C4'-C5' bond, the base orientation, and the sugar puckering all at once. The 13-membered cyclic structure was introduced using a sulfonamide linkage, which retains an N-H group that can be used to attach an additional nucleoside moiety. The sulfonamide linkage was formed through the end-to-end cyclization of an intermediate that contained both a sulfonyltriazole and amino groups. Both 1H NMR and computational studies revealed that the sugar conformation, base orientation, and γ torsion angle were S-type, anti, and trans, respectively. As such, cyclic nucleosides show promise for introducing these specific distorted conformations into functional nucleic acids.

Abstract
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) are therapeutic modalities that are successfully used as pharmaceuticals. However, there remains a concern that treatment with ASOs may cleave mismatched RNAs other than the target gene, leading to numerous alterations in gene expression. Therefore, improving the selectivity of ASOs is of paramount importance. Our group has focused on the fact that guanine forms stable mismatched base pairs and has developed guanine derivatives with modifications at the 2-amino group, which potentially change the mismatch recognition ability of guanine and the interaction between ASO and RNase H. In this study, we evaluated the properties of ASOs containing two guanine derivatives, 2-N-carbamoyl-guanine and 2-N-(2-pyridyl)guanine. We conducted ultraviolet (UV) melting experiments, RNase H cleavage assays, in vitro knockdown assays, and off-target transcriptome analyses using DNA microarrays. Our results indicate that the target cleavage pattern of RNase H was altered by the modification with guanine. Furthermore, global transcript alteration was suppressed in ASO incorporating 2-N-(2-pyridyl)guanine, despite a decrease in the thermal mismatch discrimination ability. These findings suggest that chemical modifications of the guanine 2-amino group have the potential to suppress hybridization-dependent off-target effects and improve ASO selectivity.

Abstract
BackgroundSjogren’s syndrome (SS) is known to coexist with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the prevalence of RA with SS varies widely, from 2.4% to 30%, and some patients with RA without SS also show dryness. The prevalence and clinical demographics of dryness in patients with RA are not well recognized.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to clarify the prevalence, clinical demographics, and related factors of dryness in patients with RA who have not been diagnosed with (SS).MethodsWe enrolled 166 patients with RA (129 females, 37 males; mean age 65.8±14.3 years; disease duration 14.1±10.9 years; DAS28-CRP 2.30±0.92) who were not diagnosed with SS. We analyzed CRP, the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), RF, anti-CCP antibody, antinuclear antibody, anti-SS-A antibody (SSA), and disease activity score (DAS) 28-CRP, and identified treatments for RA. We used each question item of the EULAR SS Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI) to clarify dryness, somatic and mental fatigue, and pain. History of smoking, comorbidities, such as interstitial pneumonia, fibromyalgia, and psychiatric disorders, and narcotic and/or psychotropic medication use were determined from the medical records. We defined patients with dryness as greater than or equal to one point, and those with severe dryness as greater than or equal to five points, of the visual analog scale (VAS).ResultsDryness was observed in 93/166 (56.0%) patients and severe dryness was identified in 57/166 (34.4%) patients, and SSA was positive in 23/139 patients(13.9%). We divided our patients into dryness and non-dryness groups and compared their clinical demographics. The dryness group was relatively younger (64.0±14.5 vs. 68.1±13.8 years, p=0.052), had a female predominance (89.2% vs. 63.0%, p<0.001), had severe fatigue (4.06±2.59 vs 2.60±2.78, p<0.001), and had severe pain (3.52±2.41 vs. 2.73±2.32, p=0.020). However, the prevalence of SSA did not significantly differ in this cohort, compared with the non-dryness group (19.3% vs. 11.8%, p=0.248). Next, we analyzed the clinical characteristics of the patients with severe dryness. The severe dryness group was younger (61.9±15.5 vs. 67.9±13.2 years, p=0.022), had higher eGFR (76.1±15.5 vs. 68.9±22.7, p=0.020), had more severe fatigue (4.89±2.42 vs. 2.85±2.63), p<0.001), and had more severe pain (4.16±2.51 vs. 2.65±2.18, p<0.001), compared with non-severe dryness group. The prevalence of SSA was also significantly higher in the severe dryness group (91.2% vs. 70.6%, p=0.002). We then performed a multifactorial analysis using logistic regression analysis with a stepwise method. Female sex (OR 3.739, 1.247-11.207) and VAS of fatigue (OR 1.269, 1.054-1.526) were found to independently relate to dryness.ConclusionMore than half of the patients with RA had dryness, although only 13.9% of patients were SSA positive. Dryness was related to female predominance and fatigue. Simon et al. reported that SS was found in 2.42% of patients with RA (1). On the other hand, Harrold et al. reported that SS was found in 30% of patients with RA, and the prevalence of SS increased with duration of RA (2). Our data indicate that patients with fatigue, regardless of pain, tend to have dryness, which may be a key factor in diagnosing SS in patients with RA.References[1]Simon TA, Kawabata H, Ray N, et.al.

Abstract
Unnatural base pairs (UBPs) which exhibit a selectivity against pairing with canonical nucleobases provide a powerful tool for the development of nucleic acid-based technologies. As an alternative strategy to the conventional UBP designs, which involve utility of different recognition modes at the Watson–Crick interface, we now report that the exclusive base pairing can be achieved through the spatial separation of recognition units. The design concept was demonstrated with the alkynylated purine (NPu, OPu) and pyridazine (NPz, OPz) nucleosides endowed with nucleobase-like 2-aminopyrimidine or 2-pyridone (‘pseudo-nucleobases’) on their major groove side. These alkynylated purines and pyridazines exhibited exclusive and stable pairing properties by the formation of complementary hydrogen bonds between the pseudo-nucleobases in the DNA major groove as revealed by comprehensive Tm measurements, 2D-NMR analyses, and MD simulations. Moreover, the alkynylated purine-pyridazine pairs enabled dramatic stabilization of the DNA duplex upon consecutive incorporation while maintaining a high sequence-specificity. The present study showcases the separation of the recognition interface as a promising strategy for developing new types of UBPs.

Abstract
We used native chemical ligation (NCL) to synthesize a 2'-O-{N-[N-(S-tert-butylthiocysteinyl)aminobutyl]carbamoylethyl} (CysBCE) ribothymidine-derived oligonucleotide to expand the variety of peptide conjugation sites, allowing the incorporation of peptides at the 2'-hydroxy group when the oligonucleotide forms a duplex with the complementary strand. The NCL reaction with a peptide thioester and the modified oligonucleotide proceeded smoothly even when the CysBCE modification was in the middle of the oligonucleotide sequence. In addition, we incorporated two CysBCEs into an oligonucleotide to conjugate two peptides to one oligonucleotide. The results indicated that the tandem NCL reactions proceeded efficiently when the oligonucleotide hybridized to the complementary strand to avoid intramolecular disulfide formation between the two CysBCE groups. This method could be useful for peptide conjugation on the 2'-position.

Abstract
To expand the variety of 2'-O-modified oligonucleotides, we synthesized 2'-O-carbamoylethyl-modified oligonucleotides bearing ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, n-pentyl, and n-octyl groups on their nitrogen atoms. The corresponding nucleosides were synthesized using 2'-O-benzyloxycarbonylethylthymidine, which was easily converted into the carboxylic acid through hydrogeneration; subsequent condensation with the appropriate amine gave the desired nucleoside. We evaluated the effect of the 2'-O-alkylcarbamoylethyl modifications on duplex stability by analyzing melting temperature, which revealed the formation of isostable duplexes. In addition, we also revealed that these modifications, especially octylcarbamoylethyl, endowed these oligonucleotides with resistance toward a 3'-exonuclease. These results highlight the usefulness of the 2'-O-alkylcarbamoylethyl modification for various biological applications.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal X-linked disorder caused by nonsense or frameshift mutations in the DMD gene. Among various treatments available for DMD, antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) mediated exon skipping is a promising therapeutic approach. For successful treatments, however, it is requisite to rigorously optimise oligonucleotide chemistries as well as chemical modifications of ASOs. To achieve this, here, we aim to develop a novel enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP)-based reporter assay system that allows us to perform efficient and high-throughput screenings for ASOs. We design a new expression vector with a CAG promoter to detect the EGFP fluorescence only when skipping of mdx-type exon 23 is induced by ASOs. Then, an accurate screening was successfully conducted in C57BL/6 primary myotubes using phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomer or locked nucleic acids (LNA)/2′-OMe mixmers with different extent of LNA inclusion. We accordingly generated a novel transgenic mouse model with this EGFP expression vector (EGFP-mdx23 Tg). Finally, we confirmed that the EGFP-mdx23 Tg provided a highly sensitive platform to check the effectiveness as well as the biodistribution of ASOs for exon skipping therapy. Thus, the assay system provides a simple yet highly sensitive platform to optimise oligonucleotide chemistries as well as chemical modifications of ASOs.

Abstract
We developed new DNA triplexes that contain four base triads T-A·T, A-ψ·CBr, G-PIC·YO, and C-G·Py+, where CBr, YO, Py, ψ, and PIC are 5-bromocytosine, 5-methyl-4-pyrimidone, 2-aminopyridine, the aglycons of deoxypseudouridine, and deoxypseudoisocytidine, respectively. DNA duplex incorporating T-A, A-ψ, G-PIC, and C-G, and triplex forming oligonucleotide incorporating T, CBr, YO, and Py formed the triplex as evaluated by Tm measurements. The triplex formation was successfully applied to the inhibition of transcription of the DNA duplex incorporating T7-promoter sequence modified by the above modified bases.

Abstract
For the improvement of nuclease resistance, four kinds of new modifications through a carbamoylethyl linker were designed. Among them, the 2'-O-[2-N-{2-(benzimidazol-1-yl)ethyl}carbamoylethyl] modification showed 20-fold longer half-life when treated with a 3' to 5' exonuclease compared to the 2'-O-methoxyethyl (MOE) modification, which is used in approved drugs. In addition, this large modification did not disturb the binding affinity or RNase H-dependent antisense activity. From these findings, it could be concluded that an adequate linker, such as carbamoylethyl in this study, could extend the utility of 2'-O-modification without loss of the properties of nucleic acids. This strategy would be useful for the development of nucleic acid therapeutics.

Enzymatic incorporation of deoxynucleoside 5'-triphosphate bearing the photocleavable protecting group is a useful method for the preparation of photocaged oligodeoxynucleotides. Here, we describe the synthesis of new photocaged deoxynucleoside triphosphates N1-(2-nitrobenzyl)-deoxypseudouridine triphosphate (dNBΨTP) and N1-(6-nitropiperonyloxymethyl)-deoxypseudouridine triphosphate (dNPOMΨTP). We successfully synthesized dNBΨTP and dNPOMΨTP and applied them to enzymatic synthesis of photocaged oligonucleotides. In addition, we also synthesized phosphoramidites of N1-(2-nitrobenzyl)- and N1-(6-nitropiperonyloxymethyl)-deoxypseudouridine to enable chemical synthesis of photocaged oligonucleotides incorporating them. The photocleavable 2-nitrobenzyl and 6-nitropiperonyloxymethyl in oligonucleotides were cleaved by irradiation at 365 nm for 30 and 10 s, respectively. We also studied the enzymatic incorporation of dNBΨTP and dNPOMΨTP using the Klenow fragment exo-. As a result, it was clarified that dNPOMΨTP could be incorporated to oligonucleotide 193 times more efficiently than dNBΨTP, as judged by Vmax/Km. We also performed the incorporation of at least eight dNPOMΨ residues in a 35-mer oligodeoxynucleotide. It has also been revealed that the oligodeoxynucleotides incorporating photocaged deoxypseudouridine were useful for photocontrol of DNA triplex formation.

Abstract
The effect of 2'-O-(N-methylcarbamoyl)ethyl (MCE) modification on splice-switching oligonucleotides (SSO) was systematically evaluated. The incorporation of five MCE nucleotides at the 5'-termini of SSOs effectively improved the splice switching effect. In addition, the incorporation of 2'-O-(N-methylcarbamoylethyl)-5-methyl-2-thiouridine (s2TMCE), a duplex-stabilizing nucleotide with an MCE modification, into SSOs further improved splice switching. These SSOs may be useful for the treatment of genetic diseases associated with splicing errors.

Abstract
Deoxynucleoside 5'-triphosphate was synthesized with 3-oxo-2 H-pyridazin-6-yl (PzO)-a uracil analogue lacking a 2-keto group-as the nucleobase. Theoretical analyses and hybridization experiments indicated that PzO recognizes adenine (A) for formation of a Watson-Crick base pair. Primer extension reactions using nucleoside 5'-triphosphate and the Klenow fragment revealed that the synthetic nucleoside 5'-triphosphate was incorporated into the 3' end of the primer through recognition of A in the template strand. Moreover, the 3'-nucleotide residue harboring PzO as the base was resistant to the 3'-exonuclease activity of Klenow fragment exo+. The primer bearing the PzO base at the 3' end could function in subsequent chain elongation. These properties of PzO were attributed to the presence of an endocyclic nitrogen atom at the position ortho to the glycosidic bond, which was presumed to form an H-bond with the amino acid residue of DNA polymerase for effective recognition of the 3' end of the primer for primer extension. These results provide a basis for designing new nucleobases by combining a nitrogen atom at the position ortho to the glycosidic bond and base-pairing sites for Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
An RNase H-dependent antisense oligonucleotide (ASO), having the 2'-O-(2-N-methylcarbamoylethyl) (MCE) modification, was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. The antisense activities of an ASO having the MCE modification were comparable with those of an ASO having the 2'-O-methoxyethyl (MOE) modification in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. In contrast, the hepatotoxic potential of the ASO having the MCE modification was lower than that of the ASO having the MOE modification. Thus, these findings suggested that the MCE modification could be used as an alternative to the MOE modification.

Abstract
To systematically understand the effect of 2-N-heteroarylguanine (GHA) modification on the stability of higher-order DNA structures, nucleoside derivatives and oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing guanine residues modified with four kinds of hereroaryl groups on the 2-amino group were synthesized. The stabilities of the DNA duplex and the parallel-oriented DNA triplex containing these GHAs were studied by measuring their melting temperatures (Tm). Tm experiments and DFT calculations of the modified guanine nucleobases suggested that the base pair formation energy and stability of the two conformations, i.e., the open- and closed-type conformations, are key to determining the stability of the DNA duplex. Finally, the DNA triplex was destabilized when modified guanine residues were introduced into triplex-forming oligonucleotides.

Abstract
Green fluorescent protein (GFP)-based molecular-rotor chromophores were attached to the 5-positions of deoxyuridines, and subsequently, incorporated into the middle positions of oligodeoxynucleotides. These oligonucleotides were designed to form triplex DNA in order to encapsulate the GFP chromophores, mimicking GFP structures. Upon triplex formation, the embedded GFP chromophores exhibited fluorescence enhancement, suggesting the potential application of these fluorescent probes for the detection of nucleic acids.

Abstract
Enzymatic synthesis and the reverse transcription of RNAs containing 2'-O-carbamoyl uridine were evaluated. A mild acidic deprotection procedure allowed the synthesis of 2'-O-carbamoyl uridine triphosphate (UcmTP). UcmTP was incorporated correctly into long RNAs, and its fidelity during reverse transcription using SuperScript III was sufficient for RNA aptamer selection.

Abstract
We describe an isothermal, enzyme-free method to detect single nucleotide differences between oligonucleotides of close homology. The approach exploits kinetic differences in toe-hold-mediated, nucleic acid strand-displacement reactions to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with essentially "digital" precision. The theoretical underpinning, experimental analyses, predictability, and accuracy of this new method are reported. We demonstrate detection of biologically relevant SNPs and single nucleotide differences in the let-7 family of microRNAs. The method is adaptable to microarray formats, as demonstrated with on-chip detection of SNP variants involved in susceptibility to the therapeutic agents abacavir, Herceptin, and simvastatin.

Abstract
6-O-(2-Nitrobenzyl)guanosine and 4-O-(2-nitrobenzyl)uridine triphosphates (NBGTP, NBUTP) were synthesized, and their biochemical and photophysical properties were evaluated. We synthesized NBUTP using the canonical triphosphate synthesis method and NBGTP from 2',3'-O-TBDMS guanosine via a triphosphate synthesis method by utilizing mild acidic desilylation conditions. Deprotection of the nitrobenzyl group in NBGTP and NBUTP proceeded within 60s by UV irradiation at 365nm. Experiments using NBGTP or NBUTP in T7-RNA transcription reactions showed that NBGTP could be useful for the photocontrol of transcription by UV irradiation.

Abstract
The Mitsunobu reaction has emerged as an important alternative for the preparation of synthetic 2′-deoxynucleosides, which have various biological and biotechnological applications. In this work, the Mitsunobu-based synthesis of 2′-deoxynucleosides was systematically studied. The effect of phosphine, azodicarbonyl reagent, and solvent on the product yield and α/β ratio was investigated, and the highest yield and β-selectivity were obtained using (n-Bu)3P and 1,1′-(azodicarbonyl)dipiperidine in DMF. The reaction was successfully applied to various nucleobase analogues.

Abstract
Chemical modification of RNA duplexes alters their stability. We have attempted to develop a computational approach to estimate the thermal stability of chemically modified duplexes. These studies revealed that the deformability of chemically modified RNA duplexes, calculated from molecular dynamics simulations, could be used as a good indicator for estimating the effect of chemical modification on duplex thermal stability. This unit describes how deformability calculation can be applied to estimate the relative stability of chemically modified RNA duplexes. © 2017 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Abstract
5-[3-(2-Aminopyrimidin-4-yl)aminopropyn-1-yl]uracil (Ura(Pyr)) was designed as a new nucleobase to recognize Ade-Thy base pair in double-stranded DNA. We successfully synthesized the dexoynucleoside phosphoramidite having Ura(Pyr) and incorporated it into triplex forming oligonucleotides (TFOs). Melting temperature analysis revealed that introduction of Ura(Pyr) into TFOs could effectively stabilize their triplex structures without loss of base recognition capabilities.

Abstract
2'-O-Methyl oligoribonucleotides with four kinds of 2'-O-modified uridine derivatives were synthesised. Their duplex stability, hydration behavior and exonuclease resistance were studied by spectroscopic analyses and molecular dynamics simulations. Consequently, 2'-O-modification of the uridine residue with 2-carbamoylethyl or 2-(N-methylcarbamoyl)ethyl groups resulted in a significant improvement of the exonuclease resistance without the loss of duplex stability.

However, unmodified TFOs have two serious drawbacks: low binding affinities and high sequence-dependencies. In this paper, we propose a new strategy that uses a new set of modified nucleobases for four-base recognition of TFOs, and thereby overcome these two drawbacks. TFOs containing a 2’-deoxy-4N-(2-guanidoethyl)-5-methylcytidine (dgC) residue for a C-G base pair have higher binding and base recognition abilities than those containing 2’-OMe-4N-(2-guanidoethyl)-5-methylcytidine (2’-OMegC), 2’-OMe-4N-(2-guanidoethyl)-5-methyl-2-thiocytidine (2’-OMegCs), dgC and 4S-(2-guanidoethyl)-4-thiothymidine (gsT). Further, we observed that N-acetyl-2,7-diamino-1,8-naphtyridine (DANac) has a higher binding and base recognition abilities for a T-A base pair compared with that of dG and the other DNA derivatives. On the basis of this knowledge, we successfully synthesized a fully modified TFO containing DANac, dgC, 2’-OMe-2-thiothymidine (2’-OMesT) and 2’-OMe-8-thioxoadenosine (2’-OMesA) with high binding and base recognition abilities. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report in which a fully modified TFO accurately recognizes a complementary DNA duplex having a mixed sequence under neutral conditions.

Abstract
Synthesis of peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) is reported with new pyridazine-type nucleobases: 3-aminopyridazine (aPz) and 1-aminophthalazine (aPh) as cytosine analogs, and pyridazin-3-one (Pz(O)) and phthalazin-1-one (Ph(O)) as thymine analogs. The PNAs having an aPz or a Pz(O) formed duplexes with each complementary oligodeoxynucleotide forming a base pair with G or A, respectively, as evaluated by using UV melting analyses and circular dichroism (CD) spectra.

Abstract
We developed fluorescent turn-on probes containing a fluorescent nucleoside, 5-(benzofuran-2-yl)deoxyuridine (dU(BF)) or 5-(3-methylbenzofuran-2-yl)deoxyuridine (dU(MBF)), for the detection of single-stranded DNA or RNA by utilizing DNA triplex formation. Fluorescence measurements revealed that the probe containing dU(MBF) achieved superior fluorescence enhancement than that containing dU(BF). NMR and fluorescence analyses indicated that the fluorescence intensity increased upon triplex formation partly as a consequence of a conformational change at the bond between the 3-methylbenzofuran and uracil rings. In addition, it is suggested that the microenvironment around the 3-methylbenzofuran ring contributed to the fluorescence enhancement. Further, we developed a method for detecting RNA by rolling circular amplification in combination with triplex-induced fluorescence enhancement of the oligonucleotide probe containing dU(MBF).

Abstract
Oligonucleotides, containing 4-N-(1H-pyrrol-2-ylcarbonyl)deoxycytidine (dC(Pyc)) and related derivatives, were synthesized via deprotection using 1.5 M NaOMe/MeOH. Among them, oligodeoxynucleotides containing dC(Pyc) exhibited a higher hybridization affinity for DNA and RNA than the unmodified oligodeoxynucleotides. Comparative analysis between dC(Pyc) and its derivatives by molecular dynamic simulation indicated that the C(Pyc) residue could form four hydrogen bonds with the opposite G nucleobase keeping a more planar structure than the C(Inc) residue where the Pyc group was replaced with a 1H-indol-2-ylcarbonyl group.
