Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Photochemical site-specific deamination was performed toward BFP-mRNA, by using oligodeoxynucleotides,ODNs, for inducing deamination. The base substitution by artificial RNA editing was confirmed by RT-PCR-RFLP analysis and fluorescence of in-vitro-translated proteins. Moreover, the mRNA sample was sequenced after photochemical RNA editing treatments, and confirmed that there was no mutation occurred except the target-site. We also investigated the ODN design that could induce efficient deamination. The ODN with complementary sequence length of 14 bases and hairpin length of 9 bases showed the highest photochemical RNA editing efficiency at 12.4%. This result suggests that the photochemical RNA editing is applicable as a theraputic method for genetic diseases.
