Research Abstract |
RNA function is controlled by post-transcriptional modification. Therefore, there is increasing demand for methods of the site-specific modifications of RNA because of potential applications as biological tools and therapeutic methods. In this research, we are developing site-specific RNA modification tool using cross-linking forming oligonucleotide. We have found that the 6-vinylpurine newly designed in the current study serves well as a new nucleobase for increasing cross-link reactivity to target cytosine.
