| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we tried to apply our novel photolabile protecting group to caged compounds. A firefly luciferin was selected as a target bioactive compound, and we examined the Photodeprotection reaction of the synthesized caged firefly luciferin in water. After photoirradiation, the original firefly luciferin was released from caged compounds with increasing the irradiation time. In in vivo experiment, however, the enzyme in the cell dissociates the chemical bond (ester bond) between a firefly luciferin and a photolabile protecting group. Next, we selected thymidine as a new target compound, and synthesized caged thymidine with ether bond to suppress the bond dissociation by the enzyme. After photoirradiation to the synthesized caged thymidine, we confirmed the regeneration of thymidine. In addition, we applied caged thymidine to the caged antisense oligomer. This caged antisense oligomer enabled to recover the original function as antisense oligomer after photoirradiation.
