Solution-based modification of ODNs for functional handle attachment. (A)–(D) The attachment of RAFT agents, (((butylthio)carbonothioyl)thio)propanoic acid (BTPA) and 4-cyano-4-(phenylcarbonothioylthio)pentanoic acid (CPADB), to ODNs through amide coupling chemistry with NHS and pentafluorophenol (PFP) activated carboxylic acids. (E) NHS-activated coupling of tetrazine to amine DNA. (F) Amide coupling of norbornene-carboxylic acid with amine DNA. Coupling reagents include diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA), 1-ethyl-3-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)carbodiimide (EDCl), and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt), and solvents include dimethylformamide (DMF) and phosphate buffered saline (PBS).
