N2,N2-Dimethylguanosine
Based on 4 publication(s) in Google Scholar
N2,N2-Dimethylguanosine is a methylated modified nucleoside present in RNA and serves as a structural modification component of tRNA. N2,N2-Dimethylguanosine inhibits reverse transcriptase-mediated cDNA synthesis and is one of the key modifications affecting sequencing efficiency in high-throughput RNA sequencing. N2,N2-Dimethylguanosine can be selectively demethylated at one methyl group by AlkB mutant enzymes (such as D135S/L118V) and converted to N2-methylguanosine, thereby reducing the inhibition of reverse transcription.

Human Endogenous Metabolite |
N2,N2-dimethylguanosine (5-95 μM for 12m22GA; 2.3-84 μM for 13m22GA; 2.9-105 μM for 11m22GA) increases hairpin stability by 3.5°C in the 12m22GA oligoribonucleotide, slightly destabilizes hairpin stability by 1°C and significantly destabilizes duplex stability in the 13m22GA oligoribonucleotide, and shifts the secondary structure equilibrium toward a mixture of hairpin and duplex forms in the 11m22GA oligoribonucleotide[1].
N2,N2-dimethylguanosine (0.5 mM; ~1 week at 291 K) forms imino-hydrogen bonded pairs with A in the 13m22GA RNA duplex, inducing local conformational changes including helical bending and altered hydrogen bond geometry, and reducing minor groove hydration, which contributes to reduced duplex thermodynamic stability[1].
N2,N2-dimethylguanosine (m22G) (1 nM; 2 h) in a synthetic 9mer RNA oligo substrate is fully converted to N2-methylguanosine (m2G) via selective removal of one methyl group by the AlkBD135S/L118V mutant, with no further demethylation to unmodified guanosine[2].
N2,N2-dimethylguanosine at position 26 (m22G26) in HEK293T cell tRNAs has its modification index reduced via selective demethylation to N2-methylguanosine (m2G) by the AlkB D135S/L118V mutant (as part of a three-demethylase mixture), with the greatest effect observed in mitochondrial tRNAIle and cytosolic tRNAThr, tRNATrp, and tRNATyr[2].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 1.5 mg/mL (4.82 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
