Abstract

The preparation of 3'-mono- and 3', 5' -bis-labeled oligonucleotides on a new fluorescein-functionalized polymer support based on Silochrom-2 microspherical silica is described. Oligonucleotide (dT)15 containing a dye residue at 3'-end was synthesized on this support by solid-phase phosphoramidite method. Post-synthetic 5'-modification of 3'-conjugate allowed obtaining double dye-labeled oligomer. In the future it will be used for the synthesis of fluorescent probe for nucleic acids detection.
Keywords: oligonucleotide conjugates, fluorescent labels, solidphase synthesis, functionalization
