The pivaloyloxymethyl (PivOM) group is a biolabile 2'-O-ribose protection that is under development in a prodrug-based approach for siRNA applications. Besides an expected cellular uptake, nucleic acid sequences carrying PivOM showed also increased nuclease resistance and, in most cases, an

Peptide glycosylation with 5-deoxy-5-[(18)F]fluororibose was translated into preclinical settings. The novel (18)F-labeled Siglec-9 peptide was produced using an automated synthesis procedure. The (18)F-labeled Siglec-9 peptide showed favorable binding in the animal model of inflammation in vivo.

Deadenylation of eukaryotic mRNA is a mechanism critical for mRNA function by influencing mRNA turnover and efficiency of protein synthesis. Here, we review poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN), which is one of the biochemically best characterized deadenylases. PARN is unique among the

A series of peracetylated O-aryl α,β-d-ribofuranosides have been synthesized and an efficient biocatalytic methodology has been developed for the separation of their anomers which was otherwise almost impossible by column chromatographic or other techniques. The incubation of 2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-1-O-aryl-α,β-d-ribofuranoside with Lipozyme®

Isotope labeling has revolutionized NMR studies of small nucleic acids, but to extend this technology to larger RNAs, site-specific labeling tools to expedite NMR structural and dynamics studies are required. Using enzymes from the pentose phosphate pathway, we coupled chemically
