LJP 249: A NEW OLIGONUCLEOTIDE
CONJUGATE FOR THE SUPPRESSION OF ANTI-DOUBLE STRANDED DNA ANTIBODIES
David S. Jones, John P. Hachmann, Stephen A. Osgood, Stephen M.
Coutts
Conjugates of 5-modified single stranded (ss) and double-stranded
(ds) oligonucleotides (ON), with derivatized polyethylene glycol
(PEG) and with keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), were synthesized.
A 5 thiol containing ON was synthesized from a new phosphoramidite
linker and was reacted with PEG, derivatized with four iodoacetyl
groups, to provide a conjugate of four ss-ON per PEG. Complementary
ON strands were annealed to provide LJP 249, an anti-DNA suppressive
conjugate of four ds-ON per PEG. A 5 vicinal diol containing-ON
was synthesized from another new phosphoramidite linker, and was
used to prepare a conjugate of about five ds-ON per KLH for use
as an immunogen. The complete chemical syntheses of both conjugates
are described.
