Activity of acid deoxyribonuclease towards diastereoisomers of thymidyl 3'-(4-nitrophenyl phosphorothioate). Stereochemistry of transnucleotidylation reaction
Abstract
The (Rp)- and (Sp)-diastereoisomers of thymidyl 3'-(4-nitrophenyl phosphorothioate) (1) were found to act as unusual substrates for acid deoxyribonuclease (DNase II). Instead of the expected thymidine 3'-phosphorothioate, the product resulting from the reaction of (Rp)-1 catalyzed by DNase II was identified as (Sp, Rp)-thymidyl (3'-5')thymidyl phosphorothioate 3'-(4-nitrophenyl phosphorothioate), while that from (Sp)-1 has been recognized as a 10:1 mixture of (Sp, Rp)-thymidyl (3'-5')thymidyl phosphorothioate 5'-(4-nitrophenyl phosphorothioate) and (Rp, Sp)-thymidyl (3'-5')-thymidyl phosphorothioate 3'-(4-nitrophenyl phosphorothioate), respectively. Both types of transnucleotidylations were found to occur with retention of configuration at phosphorus. Stereochemical results may be interpreted in terms of two step mechanisms involving the formation of the intermediate, covalent substrate enzyme complexes.
