Oligodeoxyribonucleotides which form a number of duplexes, containing the recognition sequences for endonuclease BamHI and DNA methylase Eco dam, were synthesised by the phosphotriester approach. Furthermore, synthesis of 3'-phosphorylated oligodeoxyribonucleotides from corresponding S-methyl phosphorothioate triester oligomers is described. The synthetic duplexes are characterized by some defects in the recognition sequences for endonuclease BamHI and methylase Eco dam, viz. nick, absence of an internucleotide phosphate, modifications (including partial single-strandedness) of the recognition site. Interaction of the enzymes with these synthetic substrates was investigated.

The development and progression of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is closely associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. NPC is usually asymptomatic until it spreads to other sites, and more than 70% of cases are classified as locally advanced disease at diagnosis. EBV-positive nasopharyngeal cancer tissues express only limited viral latent proteins, but express high levels of the EBV-encoded BamHI-A rightward transcript (BART) miRNA molecules.
