2'-O-Methyl-3'-O-phosphoramidite building blocks of 6-oxocytidine 6 and its 5-methyl derivative 7, respectively, were synthesized and incorporated via phosphoramidite chemistry in 15 mer oligodeoxynucleotides [d(T72T7), S2; d(T73T7), S3] to obtain potential Py.Pu.Py triplex forming homopyrimidine strands. UV thermal denaturation studies and CD spectroscopy of 1:1 mixtures of these oligomers and a 21 mer target duplex [d(C3A7GA7C3)-d(G3T7CT7G3), D1] with a complementary purine tract showed a nearly pH-independent (6.0-8.0) triple helix formation with melting temperatures of 21-19 degrees C and 18.5-17.5 degrees C, respectively (buffer system: 50 mM sodium cacodylate, 100 mM NaCl, 20 mM MgCl2). In contrast, with the corresponding 15mer deoxy-C-containing oligonucleotide [d(T(7)1T7), S1] triplex formation was observed only below pH 6.6. Specificity for the recognition of Watson-Crick GC-base pairs was observed by pairing the modified C-bases of the 15mers with all other possible Watson-Crick-base compositions in the target duplex [d(C3A7XA7C3)-d(G3T7YT7G3), X = A,C,T; Y = T,G,A, D2-4]. Additionally, the Watson-Crick-pairing of the modified oligomers S2 and S3 was studied.
