Common Name2'-amino-2'-deoxyguanosine
Description2'-amino-2'-deoxyguanosine is a nucleoside analog belonging to the class of modified deoxynucleosides. It serves as a metabolite with significant implications in biochemical research, particularly in the study of ribozymes and RNA splicing. This compound has been utilized as a probe to investigate metal ion interactions at the active site of group I ribozymes (PMID:17629287 ). Advances in its synthesis have led to improved protocols for obtaining 2'-amino-2'-deoxyguanosine and its phosphoramidite derivatives, enhancing the efficiency and yield of its incorporation into oligonucleotides (PMID:16202607 ). Notably, 2'-amino-2'-deoxyguanosine acts as a cofactor in self-splicing reactions, effectively replacing guanosine in certain ribozymes, although its catalytic efficiency can be lower compared to unmodified counterparts (PMID:1550590 , PMID:1736306 ). The presence of metal ions, such as Mn2+ or Zn2+, has been shown to enhance the transesterification reactions involving this compound (PMID:9016608 ). Overall, 2'-amino-2'-deoxyguanosine is a crucial component in understanding RNA catalysis and the mechanisms of ribozymes.
