Product Description
2'-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine (2'-O-MOE-rG) is a 2'-O-methoxyethyl modified nucleoside, which can be synthesized from 2'-O-(2-methoxyethyl)- 2,6-diaminopurine riboside is generated by enzymatic conversion (adenosine deaminase). 2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine is not efficiently phosphorylated by cytosolic nucleoside kinases and cannot be incorporated into cellular DNA or RNA.
2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine (CAS# 473278-54-5), also known as 2'-O-MOE-rG, is a 2′-O-methoxyethyl-modified purine nucleoside analog that serves as a foundational building block in the synthesis of chemically modified oligonucleotides, particularly antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and siRNAs. It has a molecular formula of C13H19N5O6 and a molecular weight of 341.32. The MOE modification stabilizes RNA duplexes by increasing melting temperature (Tm) and providing resistance to exonucleases and endonucleases.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine does not have a specific biological target itself but serves as a modified nucleoside building block for oligonucleotide therapeutics. When incorporated into oligonucleotides, the 2′-O-methoxyethyl (MOE) modification enhances nuclease resistance, increases binding affinity to complementary RNA targets, and reduces immunogenicity. The resulting modified oligonucleotides can target various biological molecules including mRNA for antisense applications or viral RNA for antiviral therapeutics.
ln Vitro
The in vitro activity of 2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine is assessed by its utility as a building block in oligonucleotide synthesis. The efficiency of incorporation into growing oligonucleotide chains during solid-phase synthesis is evaluated by monitoring coupling efficiency. The resulting MOE-modified oligonucleotides are evaluated for their binding affinity to complementary RNA targets using thermal melting (Tm) analysis, with the MOE modification typically increasing Tm by 2-5°C per modification. Nuclease resistance is assessed by incubation with various nucleases.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies for 2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine are typically conducted on the modified oligonucleotides incorporating this nucleoside rather than the monomer itself. These oligonucleotides are evaluated in animal models for their pharmacokinetic properties, biodistribution, and therapeutic efficacy in applications such as antisense therapy or siRNA. The MOE modification enhances metabolic stability and reduces immunogenicity of therapeutic oligonucleotides, potentially improving their in vivo performance.
Enzyme Assay
For oligonucleotide synthesis, 2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine is converted to the corresponding phosphoramidite and incorporated into oligonucleotides using standard solid-phase synthesis protocols. Coupling efficiency is monitored by trityl cation release measurements at each synthesis cycle. After synthesis, the oligonucleotide is cleaved from the solid support and deprotected using appropriate reagents. The final modified oligonucleotide is purified by HPLC or PAGE and characterized by mass spectrometry.
Cell Assay
For cellular uptake and activity studies, cultured cells are treated with modified oligonucleotides containing 2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine. Cells are incubated with oligonucleotides for 24-72 hours, and cellular uptake is assessed by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry using fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides. For antisense applications, gene knockdown efficiency is evaluated by qRT-PCR or Western blot. For siRNA applications, target gene silencing is assessed at the mRNA and protein levels. Cytotoxicity is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo evaluation of modified oligonucleotides, mice or rats are administered the oligonucleotides via various routes. Pharmacokinetic parameters including half-life, clearance, and tissue distribution are determined by measuring oligonucleotide concentrations in plasma and tissues using hybridization-based assays or LC-MS. For therapeutic applications, efficacy is evaluated in appropriate disease models, with disease biomarkers or survival monitored over time.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of 2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine are typically characterized for the modified oligonucleotides incorporating this nucleoside. The MOE modification increases metabolic stability by reducing susceptibility to nuclease degradation. The compound has a molecular formula of C13H19N5O6 and a molecular weight of 341.32. It appears as a solid. The compound is typically handled as a solid and stored according to manufacturer recommendations.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
2′-O-(2-Methoxyethyl)guanosine is a research compound intended for laboratory use only and is not approved for human therapeutic use. As a modified nucleoside, it is used in the synthesis of chemically modified oligonucleotides with enhanced properties for therapeutic and research applications. The MOE modification stabilizes RNA duplexes and provides resistance to nucleases. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound.
