The 5′-triphosphates are the building blocks for the enzymatic synthesis of DNAs and RNAs. This unit presents a protocol for the convenient synthesis of 2′-deoxyribo- and ribo-nucleoside 5′-triphosphates (dNTPs and NTPs) containing all the natural bases and the modified bases. This one-pot synthesis can also be applied to prepare the triphosphate analogs that contain sulfur or selenium atoms replacing the non-bridging oxygen atoms of the alpha phosphates of the triphosphates. These S- or Se-modified dNTPs and NTPs can be used to prepare diastereomerically-pure phosphorothioate nucleic acids (PS-NAs) or phosphoroselenoate nucleic acids (PSe-NAs, i.e., one type of selenium-derivatized nucleic acids: SeNA). Even without extensive purification, the synthesized dNTPs or NTPs are of high quality and can be directly used in DNA polymerization or RNA transcription. Synthesis and purification of the 5′-triphosphates, analysis and confirmation of natural and sulfur-or selenium-modified nucleic acids are described in this protocol unit.
