Abstract
Non-canonical protonation at cytosine (C) in DNA is related to a formation of second order DNA structures such as i-motif, which has a role in gene regulation. Although the detailed structural information is indispensable for comprehension of their functions in cells, the protonation status of C in complicated environments is still elusive. To provide a reporter system of non-canonical protonation, we focused on the molecular vibration that could be monitored using the Raman spectroscopy. We prepared a cytosine derivative (PC) with an acetylene unit as a Raman tag, and found that the Raman signal of acetylene in PC in oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) changed due to protonation at the cytosine ring which shortened an acetylene bond. The signal change in i-motif-forming ODNs was also observed in crowded environments with polyethylene glycol, evidencing protonation in i-motif DNA in complicated environments. This system would be one of tracking tools for protonation in DNA structures.
