Posttranscriptional chemical functionalization of azide-modified oligoribonucleotides by bioorthogonal click and Staudinger reactions

Abstract

Direct incorporation of azide groups into RNA oligonucleotides by in vitrotranscription reactions in the presence of a new azide-modified UTP analogue, and subsequent posttranscriptional chemical labeling of azide-modified oligoribonucleotide transcripts by click and Staudinger reactions are described. This postsynthetic labeling protocol is robust and modular, and offers an alternative access to RNA labeled with biophysical probes.
