Triggering DNAzymes with Light: A Photoactive C8 Thioether-Linked Adenosine
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Herein we report evidence for a light-inducible DNAzyme. In so doing, we also disclose the synthesis and photochemical properties of a novel nucleoside: 8-(2-(4-imidazolyl)ethyl-1-thio)-2'-deoxyriboadenosine (d1). The light sensitivity of (d1) was evaluated via an examination of the photoinduced reactivation of DNAzyme 8-17E from an inactive form that contained a single nucleotide (d1) modification. Restoration of DNAzyme activity results from a photoinduced reversion of (d1) to unmodified deoxyadenosine. Deuterium studies indicate that water is the source of hydrogen in the C8-H product and not the alkylthio group, suggesting that reversion of (1) to adenosine is not a consequence of simple homolysis of the C8-S bond but of an unprecedented photochemical conversion. This adenosine, which affords significant control of catalytic reactivation of a DNAzyme, may find general use in photodecaging other biological systems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
