Abstract

L'invention porte sur un procédé de préparation d'un acide nucléique résistant aux nucléases, qui comprend les étapes consistant à mélanger un acide nucléique composé d'au moins trois nucléotides, une transférase de désoxynucléotide terminal et un nucléoside triphosphate 2',4'-réticulé l'un avec l'autre et l'incubation du mélange résultant. Des exemples du nucléoside triphosphate 2',4'-réticulé devant être utilisé dans le procédé comprennent le 5-méthyl-2'-O,4'-C-(méthylèneoxy-méthylène)uridine-5'-triphosphate, le 5-méthyl-2'-O,4'-C-(aminométhylène)uridine-5'-triphosphate et le 5-méthyl-2'-O,4'-C-(benzyloxyméthylène)uridine-5'-triphosphate. Conformément au procédé, il devient possible de conférer une excellente résistance aux nucléases à un acide nucléique fonctionnel existant après cela d'une manière simple.
