ddGTP (2’, 3’-Dideoxyguanosine 5’-triphosphate) is a dideoxynucleotide used as a chain terminator in DNA sequencing[1]. Unlike dGTP, ddGTP lacks hydroxyl groups at both the 2’ and 3’ positions of the ribose moiety. This structural feature prevents the formation of a 3’, 5’-phosphodiester bond after being incorporated by polymerase into a growing DNA strand, resulting in termination of DNA synthesis[2]. ddGTP is commonly employed in cycle sequencing, enzymatic mechanism studies, and the generation of RNA or DNA sequences that cannot be extended by polymerases or ligated by DNA ligases[3].
In vitro, ddGTP (<1μM) strongly inhibits DNA polymerase α activity in the presence of Mn2+ by competing with the natural substrate dGTP for the enzyme’s binding site, exhibiting an inhibition constant (Ki) of 0.035μM[4]. ddGTP effectively inhibits the reverse transcriptase of human and simian immunodeficiency viruses (HIV and SIV), with Ki values of 0.009μM and 0.011μM, respectively[5]. Following incubation with TS30- and TS60-modified biosensors and Jurkat T cells for 3h in the presence of 0.2mM ddGTP, a subsequent 1h incubation in 10μM thiazole orange (TO) solution was performed. The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of the ddGTP-treated sensors (MFI=157) was significantly lower than that of the positive control group (MFI=261)[6]. Starch-TEPA/ddGTP complex (containing 1mg/mL starch-TEPA and 0.3mg/mL ddGTP) incubated with A549 cells at 37℃ for 4h exhibited high biological activity (99%), significantly surpassing the cell-killing effect of free ddGTP[7].
