Photoanalogues of the initiation substrates of the RNA polymerase II, 5-azido-2-nitrobenzoyl derivatives of the ATP gamma-amidophosphate: the possible photoinduced degradation of the functional group to an N-arylhydroxylamine.
Photoanlogues of the initiation substrates of the RNA polymerase II, N3ArNH(CH2)(n)NHpppA where N3Ar is 5-azido-2-nitrobenzoyl group (n = 2 or 4) were synthesized, allowing the preparation of photoreactive oligonucleotides in situ by RNA polymerase II for application as photolabels. Photolysis of p-nitro-substituted aromatic azide in aqueous medium was investigated. Using the azoxy-coupling reaction it was possible to determine whether a nitrene or p-nitrophenyl hydroxylamine azoxy compound is the trappable intermediate that is generated at ambient temperature in aqueous solution.
