Abstract

Abstract Compounds having structure (1) ##STR1## wherein R 1 is --H a protecting group, a linker or a binding partner; and R 2 and R 34 are as defined in the specification. The invention also provides intermediates and methods make the structure (1) compounds, as well as methods to use the compounds as labels in diagnostic assays and to enhance binding to complementary bases.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 177 words
A method comprising mixing a compound having the structure (1): ##STR37## and tautomers, solvates and salts thereof, wherein R 1 is an oligonucleotide, a protecting group, a linker, or H; R 2 is A(Z) X1 , wherein A is a spacer and Z independently is a label bonding group optionally bonded to a detectable label, but R 2 is not amine, protected amine, nitro or cyano; R 27 is independently --CH═, --N═, --C(C 1 -C 8 alkyl)═ or --C(halogen)═, but no adjacent R 27 are both --N═, or two adjacent R 27 are taken together to form a ring having the structure, ##STR38## where Ra is independently --CH═, --N═, --C(C 1 -C 8 alkyl)═ or --C(halogen)═, but no adjacent Ra are both --N═, R 34 is --O--, --S--, or --N(CH 3 )--; and X1 is 1, 2 or 3; with a sample suspected of containing a target nucleic acid having a base sequence that is substantially complementary or complementary to the compound's base sequence to form a mixture and optionally incubating the mixture to form a complex.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 177 words
A method comprising mixing a compound having the structure (1): ##STR37## and tautomers, solvates and salts thereof, wherein R 1 is an oligonucleotide, a protecting group, a linker, or H; R 2 is A(Z) X1 , wherein A is a spacer and Z independently is a label bonding group optionally bonded to a detectable label, but R 2 is not amine, protected amine, nitro or cyano; R 27 is independently --CH═, --N═, --C(C 1 -C 8 alkyl)═ or --C(halogen)═, but no adjacent R 27 are both --N═, or two adjacent R 27 are taken together to form a ring having the structure, ##STR38## where Ra is independently --CH═, --N═, --C(C 1 -C 8 alkyl)═ or --C(halogen)═, but no adjacent Ra are both --N═, R 34 is --O--, --S--, or --N(CH 3 )--; and X1 is 1, 2 or 3; with a sample suspected of containing a target nucleic acid having a base sequence that is substantially complementary or complementary to the compound's base sequence to form a mixture and optionally incubating the mixture to form a complex.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 51 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the compound and the target nucleic acid form a complex having a Tm of about 85 to 95° C., optionally heating the complex to about 85 to 95 ° C. to provide a heated complex, and optionally mixing the heated complex with a DNA polymerase.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 201 words
The method of claim 1 wherein R 1 has the structure: ##STR39## wherein D is --OH, protected --OH, an oligonucleotide coupling group or a solid support; D 1 is an oligonucleotide coupling group, --OH, protected --OH, or a solid support, wherein D 1 is bonded to one 2' or 3' position in the oligonucleotide of structure (2) and the adjacent 2' or 3' position in structure (2) is substituted with R 21 , provided that D and D 1 are not both an oligonucleotide coupling group or they are not both a solid support; R 4 is independently a phosphodiester linkage or a phosphodiester substitute linkage, wherein R 4 is bonded to one 2' or 3' position in the structure (2) oligonucleotide and the adjacent 2' or 3' position in structure (2) is substituted with R 21 ; R 21 is independently --H, --OH, halogen or a moiety that enhances the oligonucleotide against nuclease cleavage; R 37 is independently --O--, --CH 2 -- or --CF 2 --; n is at least about 7; and B independently is a purine or pyrimidine base or a protected derivative thereof, provided that at least one B is a base of structure (3), ##STR40## .
