Redirection of miRNA‐Argonaute Complexes to Specific Target Sites by Synthetic Adaptor Molecules

Abstract: Dysregulation of miRNAs is connected with a multitude of diseases for which antagomirs and miRNA replacement are discussed as therapeutic options. Here, we suggest an alternative concept based on the redirection of RISCs to non‐native target sites. Metabolically stable DNA‐LNA mixmers are used to mediate the binding of RISCs to mRNAs without any direct base complementarity to the presented guide RNA strand. Physical redirection of a dye‐labeled miRNA model and of specific miRNA‐programmed RISC fractions presen… Show more

“…Whenever synthetic molecules are intended to adopt the function of such DNA/RNA regulators, e. g ., as artificial transcription factors binding a new recognition site, it is worth considering a redirection strategy: Bifunctional adaptor molecules may capture the protein of interest and guide it to the designed new binding site. This strategy is applicable to many kinds of proteins, e. g ., to RISC complexes acting on mRNAs [51] . In the present study, we have investigated the chemical aspects of SP1 redirection.…”

“…Possible applications may comprise the trapping of miRNA-Argonaute complexes and their redirection to novel target sites in non-cognate mRNAs. [48] Experimental Section HPLC analysis of the reductive activation of conjugates 3-5 with glutathione (Figure 1). A 20 μM solution of conjugate 3, 4, or 5 (130 mM MES buffer pH 7.0, 130 mM NaCl) was incubated with 0.5 mM or 10 mM GSH in a polyethylene vial (total volume 140 μL) and kept at 37 °C.…”

“…Reductive activation of quinone methide precursors thus should be useful to trigger the crosslinking of nucleic acids at cellular GSH concentrations. Possible applications may comprise the trapping of miRNA‐Argonaute complexes and their redirection to novel target sites in non‐cognate mRNAs [48] …”

“…Die Durchführbarkeit eines Pulldowns wurde im Arbeitskreis bereits von Mathias Bolz mit einer 7mer LNA und dem anschließenden Nachweis des Argonautenproteins demonstriert. [211] Um besser zu verstehen, warum dies bisher mit einem PNA-Konjugat nicht möglich war, wäre es sinnvoll, den Pulldown zunächst mit einem rekombinanten RISC in einem minimalen in vitro System durchzuführen. So kann leichter festgestellt werden, ob Proteine oder andere Bestandteile des Zelllysats den Pulldown beeinträchtigen und das Konjugat erfolgreich an den RISC bindet.…”
