Construction of a Reduction-responsive DNA Microsphere using a Reduction-cleavable Spacer based on a Nitrobenzene Scaffold

Working Paper
This content is a preprint and has not undergone peer review at the time of posting.

Abstract

We describe that the reduction-cleavable spacer (RCS) containing a nitrobenzene scaffold can be incorporated into a single-stranded DNA sequence to enable the construction of a reduction-responsive DNA architecture with spherical morphology at micrometer scale. The RCS could allow for the introduction of the reduction-responsiveness into various functional oligonucleotides as well as nucleic acid-based architectures.
