  • Patent number: 6506906
    Abstract: Small molecule polyamides that specifically bind with subnanomolar affinity to any predetermined sequence in the human genome with potential use in molecular biology and human medicine are described. Further, the designed compounds which target the minor groove of B-form double helical DNA offer a general approach for the control of gene-expression. Simple rules are disclosed which provide for rational control of the DNA-binding sequence specificity of synthetic polyamides containing N-methylpyrrole and N-methylimidazole amino acids. A series of molecular templates for polyamide design are disclosed which provide for small molecules which recognize predetermined DNA sequences with affinities and specificities comparable to sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins such as transcription factors. These design rule are applied to provide a polyamide for specific targeting of a predetermined 7 base pair sequence from a conserved HIV gene promoter at subnanomolar concentration.

  • Patent number: 6492346
    Abstract: Conjugates between a minor groove binding molecule, such as the trimer of 1,2-dihydro-(3H)-pyrrolo[3,2-e]indole-7-carboxylate (CDPI3), and an oligonucleotide form unusually stable hybrids with complementary target sequences, in which the tethered CDPI3 group resides in the minor groove of the duplex. These conjugates can be used as probes and primers. Due to their unusually high binding affinity, conjugates as short as 8-mers can be used as amplification primers with high specificity and efficiency. MGB conjugation also increases the discriminatory power of short oligonucleotides, providing enhanced detection of nucleotide sequence mismatches by short oligonucleotides.
