5-Iodo-2′-deoxycytidine (5-iododeoxycytidine) is used in the construction of DNA oligomers to enable structural studies and photoactivated cross-linking. 5-Iodo-2′-deoxycytidine is used in the synthesis of other modified nucleosides, such as 5-ethynylferrocenyl-2′-deoxycytidine used in semiconductor electrodes and 10-(2-deoxyβ-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrimido[4′,5′:4,5]pyrimido[1,6-a]indole-6,9(7H)-dione (dCPPI).
Two Mannich-base prodrugs of 5-iodo-2'-deoxycytidine (5-IDC) have been synthesized. The prodrugs exhibit increased lipid solubility compared to 5-IDC and rapidly revert to 5-IDC in buffer. One of the prodrugs delivered about twice as much 5-IDC from isopropyl myristate (IPM) through
The study of the permeability of the cornea to 5-iodo-2'-deoxycytidine (IDC), an antiherpetic agent was performed in the rabbit. In a first experiment, using 125I-IDC eye-drops and a sustained contact between the drug and the cornea, we showed that the
This communication describes the use of 6 different halogenated pyrimidine analogues, bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd), chlorodeoxyuridine (CldUrd), iododeoxyuridine (IdUrd), bromodeoxycytidine (BrdCyd), chlorodeoxycytidine (CldCyd), and iododeoxycytidine (IdCyd), to achieve sister chromatid differentiation (SCD) and evaluate sister chromatid exchange (SCE) formation in mitogen-stimulated human

Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme that adds telomeric sequence repeats to the ends of linear chromosomes. In vitro, telomerase has been observed to add repeats to a DNA oligonucleotide primer in a processive manner, leading to the postulation of a

10-(2-Deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrimido[4',5':4,5]pyrimido[1,6-a]indole-6,9(7H)-dione (dCPPI) and its derivatives were synthesized via the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of 5-iododeoxycytidine with 5-substituted N-Boc-indole-2-borates and characterized by UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. The new fluorescent nucleosides showed rather large Stokes shifts (116-139 nm) in an aqueous buffer. The
