Abstract
The effect of a structural change of ribose to deoxyribose, by replacement of 2'-OH by 2'-H, on the conformational equilibrium of the sugar ring is described in terms of one thermodynamic cycle. The method is based on the observation that conformational correlations of the sugar ring--side chain ensemble in DNA and RNA components show one general pattern, reflecting an intrinsic physical property of this ensemble. The pattern determines a choice of model systems to study. The systems consist of pairs of DNA and RNA components, nucleosides and nucleotides in aqueous solution, where all conformational factors are fully controlled. This approach allowed us to describe the thermodynamic cycle and measure its fundamental parameters, equilibrium constants and free energy differences, delta delta G, from a nuclear magnetic resonance study. The delta delta G values as determined for pairs of ribo- and deoxyribo-nucleosides in classes of syn-constrained and anti-preferred models, are comparable and lie in a narrow range, delta delta G = 1.7 +/- 0.1 [kJ/mol]. For pairs of ribo- and deoxyribo-nucleotides, the delta delta G values also lie in narrow ranges, delta delta G = 1.7 +/- 0.1 [kJ/mol] for 5'-phosphate nucleotides and delta delta G = 1.9 +/- 0.1 [kJ/mol] for 3'-phosphate nucleotides, i.e. similar to those observed for nucleosides. The measured quantity, delta delta G, is generally observed in a relatively narrow range, delta delta G = 1.75 +/- 0.15 [kJ/mol], irrespective of the class of the model system. This quantity represents a "pure" constant contribution, pe one sugar moiety, as a "driving force" for the N-->S shift in the sugar ring conformational equilibrium, when one compares RNA and DNA. This important thermodynamic quantity, delta delta G, has not hitherto been determined for nucleic acids. Ultimately the delta delta G quantity is revealed in the tendency to adopt S(C2'endo) sugar puckering domain by the majority of DNA structures, whereas RNA generally adopt an N(C3'endo) puckering domain. A possible biological significance of the delta delta G quantity may include evolutionary aspects of nucleic acids.

Abstract
The solution distribution of combinations of the sugar ring puckering domains, C2'endo(S), C3'endo(N), and C4'-C5' rotamers, +sc(g+), ap(t), -sc(g-), in alpha and beta-anomers in ribo- and deoxyribo- pyrimidine nucleic acid components can be determined from vicinal coupling constants (M. Remin, J. Biomol. Str. Dyn. 2, 211 (1984). A general correlation pattern with a conformational constant lambda reflecting an intrinsic physical property of the sugar-side chain ensemble, is developed and expressed in terms of four principles: I) The +sc rotamer contributes to the C3'endo population to a higher extent (1-Yt) than to C2'endo, (1-Yt-Yg-/Xs). II) The ap rotamer contributes to both C2'endo and C3'endo populations to the same extent (Yt). III) The -sc rotamer contributes only to the C2'endo population, (Yg-/Xs). IV) The molar fractions Xs, Yt and Yg- of conformations C2'endo, ap and -sc, respectively, are strongly correlated, lambda = (Yg-/Xs)/Yt approximately 0.5, and therefore Yt is a basic variable parameter which determines all others in the correlation pattern. In alpha-anomers, regardless of the type and conformation of the sugar ring and base, the molar fraction Yt = 0.37 +/- 0.02. This finding means that different alpha-anomers show one correlation pattern free of the influence of the base. In beta-anomers, structure and conformation of the base are important factors which modulate (through Yt) the correlation pattern, conserving its fundamental features. Yt is considerably increased by a syn-oriented pyrimidine base, but decreases when the base is anti. The transition from anti to syn orientation of the base is followed by destabilization of (C2'endo, +sc) in favor of (C3'endo, ap). The principles of conformational correlations rationalize a variety of correlations observed in the past.

Abstract
As a prerequisite to quantitative in vivo studies to further explore the promising topical activity of the 2',3'-di-O-acetyl derivative of 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine (ara-A) against herpes virus infections, the kinetics of solution degradation of the 2',3'-di-O-acetyl derivative and the 2'-,3'-, and 5'-monoacetates were investigated. The rates of aqueous solution hydrolysis were found to be consistent with rank order predictions based on a consideration of substituent effects. Preliminary in vivo hydrolysis data, however, do not correlate with such predictions, indicating a need for more systemic studies of the effect of molecular structure on enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis. An important reaction of the 2'-3'-diester and the 3'-monoester in aqueous solution, in addition to ester hydrolysis, is 3'----5' acyl migration. 2'----5' Acyl migration does not occur in water but is the predominant migration pathway in organic solvents, as verified by studies in acetonitrile. 1H NMR spectroscopy was employed to study the dependence of the conformation of the sugar ring on the solvent environment. Although a change in the equilibrium between the C(2')endo and C(3')endo conformational states does occur, it is not a dramatic change and cannot explain the solvent selectivity observed in the acyl migration kinetics.

Abstract
1-(5-Deoxy-beta-D-arabino-hexofuranosyl)cytosine (4'-homoara-C) (11), a higher homolog of the antileukemic agent ara-C (1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine), was prepared by two independent routes. The first one involved the inversion of configuration at C-2' of the D-ribo epimer (1-(5-deoxy-beta-D-ribo-hexofuranosyl)cytosine, 4'-homocytidine) by the diphenylcarbonate technique; the 5-deoxy-D-ribo-hexofuranosyl moiety of 4'-homocytidine was obtained by way of an anti-Markovnikov addition of iodine trifluoroacetate to the double bond of 5,6-dideoxy-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-3-O-p-tolylsulfonyl-alpha-D-ribo-hex-5-enofu ranose and reduction of the resulting iodide(s). In the second approach, 5-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-3-O-p-tolylsulfonyl-beta-D-xylo-he xofuranose was acetolyzed and condensed with 4-acetyl-N-bis(trimethylsilyl)cytosine, and alkaline treatment gave 11 by way of a 2',3'-anhydro intermediate. The structure of 11, in particular the configuration at C-2', was confirmed by its 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectra.

Abstract
H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been applied to a study of the conformations of a variety of purine and pyrimidine beta-D-arabinofuranosyl nucleosides. The experimental results, together with data collected from the literature, demonstrated the existence of reasonably good correlations between the coupling constants made it possible to define more accurately, than hitherto possible, the conformational states between which equilibria exist in solution. The equilibrium for the arabinonucleosides differs from that previously established for ribonucleosides; in particular, structural modifications and solvent effects may appreciably modify the conformational states between which equilibria exist. Preliminary measurements on some arabinosides in the syn conformation about the glycosidic bond indicated that these do not conform to the foregoing correlations, and will require separate study. A correlation has also been established between the conformation of the arabinose ring and that of the exocyclic 5'-CH2OH group. For both purine and pyrimidine arabinonucleosides, the conformational state 3E of the arabinose ring coexists to some extent with a gauche-gauche conformation of the exocyclic 5'-CH2OH, as in the case of pyrimidine (but not purine) ribonucleosides. Application of the foregoing to some biological problems is described.

Abstract
Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of adenine cyclonucleosides, which have a fixed glycosidic conformation in an anti range, and their isopropylidene and phosphate esters are reported; those of 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine and its 5'-phosphate are also presented. The chemical shifts of the base carbons are affected not only by the bridging atom but also by the position of the bridged sugar carbon which determine the planarity of the third ring formed by cyclization between the base and the sugar. The effects of glycosidic conformation on the sugar-carbon chemical shifts are discussed by comparison of the data for 8:5'-cycloadenosines with the data for adenosine and its 8-substituted derivatives. The effects of a 2'-oxygen on sugar-carbon chemical shifts have been examined by comparing the data for 2'-deoxyadenosine, arabinosyladenine and 8:2'-anhydro-8-oxy-9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine. The effects of phosphomonoester groups on base and sugar carbon resonances have been examined and it is noted that these groups cause downfield shifts for C-8 of all cyclonucleotides. Data for the 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate derivative of 8:2'-anhydro-8-thio-9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine suggest that the previous assignments of C-4' and C-3' for nucleoside 3':5'-cyclic monophosphates must be reversed. According to the reversed assignments, it seems that C-3' and C-5' show moderate downfield shifts and C-4' shows a marked upfield shift.

Abstract
1. Potato lectin is a glycoprotein that contains about 47% (by weight) l-arabinose, 3% d-galactose and 11% hydroxyproline. It has a monomeric molecular weight of about 50000 and probably exists as a monomer-dimer system in aqueous solution, with the monomer predominating. It has a very high viscosity, which would indicate either that the molecule is very expanded or that it is an elongated ellipsoid. 2. After prolonged proteolytic digestion of a reduced and carboxymethylated derivative of the lectin, a glycopeptide was isolated (of mol.wt. 32000-34000) that included all the carbohydrate and hydroxyproline of the original glycoprotein but less than 30% of the total original amino acid residues. 3. The arabinose of the glycoprotein is present exclusively as the beta-arabinofuranoside and this includes those residues that are directly linked to the hydroxyproline residues of the polypeptide chain. All the arabinose of the glycoprotein is linked to the polypeptide chain through the hydroxyproline residues; the ratio of arabinose to hydroxyproline is 3.4:1. Although alpha-arabinofuranosides are known to be present in arabinans and arabinogalactans, the natural occurrence of beta-arabinofuranosides has not previously been reported. 4. Nine or ten serine residues of the polypeptide chain are substituted with single alpha-galactopyranoside residues that can be removed by the action of alpha-galactosidase from coffee beans but not by a beta-galactosidase. This is the first report of an alpha-galactoside linkage to serine. The effect of alpha-galactosidase is much greater on a glycopeptide from which the arabinose has been already removed, which indicates a steric hindrance of the galactosidase action by adjacent chains of arabinosides. 5. In 0.5m-NaOH (pH13.7), galactose residues were removed from the serine residues of the glycopeptide by a process of beta-elimination. This reaction took place very slowly in the intact glycopeptide but much more rapidly when the arabinofuranoside residues had been removed. This inhibitory effect of the arabinofuranoside residues on the beta-elimination reaction is likely to be due to a negative charge on the hydroxy groups of the adjacent arabinofuranoside residues, which would be ionized at this high pH value. 6. It is suggested that potato lectin may be representative of a class of soluble plant glycoproteins that would include precursors of the cell-wall glycoprotein extensin. If this is the case, extensin should also contain beta-l-arabinofuranosides linked to hydroxyproline and alpha-d-galactopyranosides linked to serine residues of the polypeptide chain.

Abstract
Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy was employed to study the solution conformations of the neutral, protonated and dissociated forms of the therapeutically active 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyladenine (araA). In particular, in strongly basic medium, increasing alkalinity led to pronounced changes in chemical shifts and coupling constants of some pentose protons, due to ionization of the pentose hydroxyls, especially the 2'-OH. The neutral form of araA may be characterized as approx. 25% C(2')endo and approx. 60% gauche-gauche, hence somewhat different from that of the therapeutically active 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine (araC). By contrast, the conformations of the anionic forms of both of these are identical, predominantly (greater than 80%) C(2')endo and gauche-gauche. With the aid of the 3'-O-methyl derivatives of araA and araC, where only the 2'-OH ionizes, and the accompanying conformational changes are similar, it follows that the conformation C(2')endo and gauche-gauche for all the foregoing is constrained to this form via a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond, viz. O(5')H...O(2')(-). The influence of the foregoing hydrogen bond on the chemical shifts of the adenine H(8) in the araA anion points to the existence of the latter in the form anti. A similar effect of the doubly ionized phosphate group on H(8) in 5'-araAMP shows the nucleotide to also prefer the form anti, as previously demonstrated for 5'-AMP. The conformations of the sugar rings of the neutral forms of araA and adenosine in aqueous medium differ appreciably, whereas in the solid state they are very similar. PMR spectroscopy is shown to be an effective method for following sugar hydroxyl dissociation. The extent of ionization of a given hydroxyl is provided by the resulting chemical shifts of neighbouring (geminal and vicinal) protons. When ionization is accompanied by a change in conformation, the process may be followed also by changes in proton-proton vicinal coupling constants.
