We have identified tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren)-derived scaffolds with two (t2M) or four (t4M) melamine rings that can target oligo T/U domains in DNA/RNA. Unstructured T-rich DNAs cooperatively fold with the tren derivatives to form hairpin-like structures. Both t2M and t4M act as functional switches in a family of hammerhead ribozymes deactivated by stem or loop replacement with a U-rich sequence. Catalysis of bond scission in these hammerhead ribozymes could be restored by putative t2M/t4M refolding of stem secondary structure or tertiary bridging interactions between loop and stem. The simplicity of the t2M/t4M binding site enables programming of allostery in RNAs, recoding oligo-U domains as potential sites for secondary structure or tertiary contact. In combination with a facile and general method for installation of the t2M motif on primary amines, the method described herein streamlines design of synthetic allosteric riboswitches and small molecule−nucleic acid complexes.
