Biotin, fluorescein, and tetramethylrhodamlne derivatives of P1-(6-aminohex-l-yl)-P2-(5′-adenosine) pyrophosphate were synthesized and used as substrates with T4 RNA ligase. In the absence of ATP, the non-adenylyl portion of these substrates is transferred to the 3′-hydroxyl of an RNA acceptor to form a phosphodiester bond and the AMP portion is released.E.coliandD.melanogaster5S RNA, yeast tRNAphe, (Ap)3C, and (Ap)3A serve as acceptors with yields of products varying from 50 to 100Z. Biotin-labeled oligonucleotides are bound selectively and quantitatively to avidin-agarose and may be eluted with 6 M guanidine hydrochlorlde, pH 2.5. Fluorescein and tetramethylrhodamine-labeled oligonucleotides are highly fluorescent and show no quenching due to attachment to the acceptor. The diverse structures of the appended groups and of the chain lengths and compositions of the acceptor RNAs show that T4 RNA ligase will be a useful modification reagent for the addition of various functional groups to the 3′-terminus of RNA molecules.
