We present a simple and efficient way to add cis dialdehydes, phosphoryl groups, or cis diols to the 3 prime end of oligonucleotides using periodate oxidized nucleotides (oNTPs) and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT). The 3 prime end cis dialdehyde-modified oligos are generated by incubating TdT with an oligo for several minutes followed by addition of a oNTP and incubated at 30 degrees C for 30 minutes to an hour. After allowing the addition of the cis dialdehydes, heating the reaction mixture at 90 to 95 degrees C for 10 minutes yields oligonucleotides with 3 prime phosphoryl groups. The 3 prime cis diol modified oligos are synthesized by starting with 3 prime cis diol nucleotides (HO-NTPs). The cis dialdehyde modified oligonucleotides and cis diols may then be used for a variety of investigations such as studying the interaction of proteins with the 3 prime end of DNA, and possibly RNA. As an example, we demonstrate the efficacy of using an oligonucleotide modified with oGMP at the 3 prime end as an affinity label for TdT and identified a peptide fragment that has been shown to contain two of three aspartate residues found to be in the TdT active site.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
