We developed a sensitive 32P-postlabeling method for the detection of bifunctional intrastrand crosslinks d(Pt-GpG) and d(Pt-ApG) in DNA in vitro and in vivo. After enzymatic digestion of DNA the positively charged platinum adducts were purified from unplatinated products, using strong cation exchange chromatography. Subsequently the samples were deplatinated with cyanide, because platinated dinucleotides are very poor substrates for polynucleotide kinase. The excess of cyanide was removed using Sep-pak C18 cartridges, and the resulting dinucleoside monophosphates d(GpG) and d(ApG) were subsequently postlabelled. Analysis of the postlabelling mixture was performed by a combined TLC and HPLC-procedure. Good correlations with existing methods (AAS, immunocytochemistry and ELISA) were found in DNA samples treated in vitro and in vivo with cis- or carboplatin. The detection limit of the assay was 1 adduct/10(7) nucleotides in a 10 micrograms DNA sample. 相似文献

A series of site-specifically plantinated, covalently closed circular M13 genomes (7250 bp) was constructed in order to evaluate the consequences of DNA template damage induced by the anticancer drug cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP). Here are reported the synthesis and characterization of genomes containing the intrastrand cross-linked adducts cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d(ApG)-N7(1),-N7(2)]], cis-[Pt-(NH3)2[d(GpCpG)-N7(1),-N7(3)]], and trans-[Pt(NH3)2[d(CpGpCpG)-N3(1),-N7(4)]]. These constructs, as well as the previously reported M13 genome containing a site-specifically placed cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d-(GpG)-N7(1),-N7(2)]] adduct, were used to study replication in vitro. DNA synthesis was initiated from a position approximately 177 nucleotides 3' to the individual adducts, and was terminated either by the adducts or by the end of the template, located approximately 25 nucleotides on the 5' side of the adducts. Analysis of the products of these reactions by gel electrophoresis revealed that, on average, bypass of the cis-DDP adducts occurred approximately 10% of the time and that the cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d(GpG)-N7(1),-N7(2)]] intrastrand cross-link is the most inhibitory lesion. The cis-[Pt(NH3)2[(GpCpG)-N7(1),-N7(3)]] adduct allowed a higher frequency of such translesion synthesis (ca. 25%) for two of the polymerases studied, modified bacteriophage T7 polymerase and Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I (Klenow fragment). These enzymes have either low (Klenow) or no (T7) associated 3' to 5' exonuclease activity. Bacteriophage T4 DNA polymerase, which has a very active 3' to 5' exonuclease, was the most strongly inhibited by all three types of cis-DDP adducts, permitting only 2% translesion synthesis. This enzyme is therefore recommended for replication mapping studies to detect the location of cis-DDP-DNA adducts in a heterologous population. The major replicative enzyme of E. coli, the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme, allowed less than 10% adduct bypass. Postreplication restriction enzyme cleavage studies established that the templates upon which translesion synthesis was observed contained platinum adducts, ruling out the possibility that the observed products were due to a small amount of contamination with unplatinated DNA. The effects on in vitro replication of a recently characterized adduct of trans-DDP [Comess, K. M., Costello, C. E., & Lippard, S. J. (1990) Biochemistry 29, 2102-2110] were also evaluated. This adduct provided a poor block both to DNA polymerases and to restriction enzymes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Bending studies of DNA site-specifically modified by cisplatin, trans-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) and cis-[Pt(NH3)2(N3-cytosine)Cl]+ 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Duplex oligonucleotides containing a single intrastrand [Pt(NH3)2]2+ cross-link or monofunctional adduct and either 15 or 22 bp in length were synthesized and chemically characterized. The platinum-modified and unmodified control DNAs were polymerized in the presence of DNA ligase and the products studied on 8% native polyacrylamide gels. The extent of DNA bending caused by the various platinum-DNA adducts was revealed by their gel mobility shifts relative to unplatinated controls. The bifunctional adducts cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d(GpG)]]+, cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d(ApG)]]+, and cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d(G*pTpG*)]], where the asterisks denote the sites of platinum binding, all bend the double helix, whereas the adduct trans-[Pt(NH3)2[d(G*pTpG*)]] imparts a degree of flexibility to the duplex. When modified by the monofunctional adduct cis-[Pt(NH3)2(N3-cytosine)(dG)]Cl the helix remains rod-like. These results reveal important structural differences in DNAs modified by the antitumor drug cisplatin and its analogs that could be important in the biological processing of the various adducts in vivo. 相似文献

DNA unwinding produced by site-specific intrastrand cross-links of the antitumor drug cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
The DNA unwinding produced by specific adducts of the antitumor drug cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) has been quantitatively determined. Synthetic DNA duplex oligonucleotides of varying lengths with two base pair cohesive ends were synthesized and characterized that contained site-specific intrastrand N7-purine/N7-purine cross-links. Included are cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d(GpG)]], cis-[Pt(NH3)2(d(ApG)]], and cis-[Pt(NH3)2[d(GpTpG)]] adducts, respectively referred to as cis-GG, cis-AG, and cis-GTG. Local DNA distortions at the site of platination were amplified by polymerization of these monomers and quantitatively evaluated by using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The extent of DNA unwinding was determined by systematically varying the interplatinum distance, or phasing, in polymers containing the adducts. The multimer that migrates most slowly gives the optimal phasing for cooperative bending, from which the degree of unwinding can be obtained. We find that the cis-GG and cis-AG adducts both unwind DNA by 13 degrees, while the cis-GTG adduct unwinds DNA by 23 degrees. In addition, experiments are presented that support previous studies revealing that a hinge joint forms at the sites of platination in DNA molecules containing trans-GTG adducts. On the basis of an analysis of the present and other published studies of site-specifically modified DNA, we propose that local duplex unwinding is a major determinant in the recognition of DNA damage by the Escherichia coli (A)BC excinuclease. In addition, local duplex unwinding of 13 degrees and bending by 35 degrees are shown to correlate well with the recognition of platinated DNA by a previously identified damage recognition protein (DRP) in human cells. 相似文献

The antitumor compound cis-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] (cisplatin), conserves two ammine ligands during the reaction with its cellular target DNA. Modifications of these non-leaving groups change the antineoplastic properties of this compound and its genotoxic effects. It is therefore of interest to determine the influence of non-leaving groups on the structure and stability of DNA in vitro. We have investigated platinum-DNA adducts formed by cis-[Pt(R-NH2)2(NO3)2] (where R-NH2 = NH3, methylamine, cyclobutylamine, cyclopentylamine and cyclohexylamine) as a function of DNA binding. All compounds quantitatively reacted with DNA in less than 1 h at 37 degrees C. They formed bifunctional adducts with adjacent nucleotides judging from the displacement of the intercalating molecule ethidium bromide, ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy and circular dichroism. Substitution of a H on the NH3 ligand by alkyl groups dramatically destabilized the platinum-DNA complex. Thermal stability decreased progressively with an increasing number of carbon atoms, delta tm = -4.4 degrees C for 3 cyclohexylamine-platinum-DNA adducts/1000 nucleotides, conditions where cisplatin had no effect. DNA adducts with cyclobutylamine and cyclohexylamine ligands inhibited the hydrolysis of platinum-DNA complexes by S1 nuclease. Km for the digestion of DNA containing these lesions was 2.3 times greater than for cisplatin, indicating steric inhibition of enzyme-substrate complex formation. These results show that the non-leaving groups of substituted cis-Pt(II) compounds may destabilize DNA and interfere with protein-DNA interactions. These perturbations may have consequences for the genotoxic and antitumor activities of platinum compounds. 相似文献

The toxicity and mutagenicity of three DNA adducts formed by the anticancer drug cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP or cisplatin) were investigated in Escherichia coli. The adducts studied were cis-[Pt(NH3)2(d(GpG))] (G*G*), cis-[Pt(NH3)2(d(ApG))] (A*G*) and cis-[Pt(NH3)2(d(GpTpG))] (G*TG*), which collectively represent approximately 95% of the DNA adducts reported to form when the drug damages DNA. Oligonucleotide 24-mers containing each adduct were positioned at a known site within the viral strand of single stranded M13mp7L2 bacteriophage DNA. Following transfection into E. coli DL7 cells, the genomes containing the G*G*, A*G* and G*TG* adducts had survival levels of 5.2 +/- 1.2, 22 +/- 2.6 and 14 +/- 2.5% respectively, compared to unmodified genomes. Upon SOS induction, the survival of genomes containing the G*G* and A*G* adducts increased to 31 +/- 5.4 and 32 +/- 4.9% respectively. Survival of the genome containing the G*TG* adduct did not increase upon SOS induction. In SOS induced cells, the G*G* and A*G* adducts gave rise predominantly to G-->T and A-->T transversions respectively, targeted to the 5' modified base. In addition, A-->G transitions were detected for the A*G* adduct and low levels of tandem mutations at the 5' modified base as well as the adjacent 5' base were also observed for both adducts. The A*G* adduct was more mutagenic than the G*G* adduct, with a mutation frequency of 6% compared to 1.4% for the latter adduct. No cis-[Pt(NH3)2)2+ intrastrand crosslink-specific mutations were observed for the G*TG* adduct. 相似文献

The origin of the anomalous H8 chemical shifts observed in 1H-NMR spectra of oligonucleotides cross-linked at a GpG sequence with cis-[Pt(NH3)2]2+ has been investigated and clarified. The main contributions that distinguish the H8 resonances of the two platinum-ligating guanines from other GH8 signals and from each other are: (a) the inductive effect of platinum binding which we have recently quantified as a downfield shift of 0.48 +/- 0.07 ppm (M. H. Fouchet, D. Lemaire, J. Kozelka and J.-C. Chottard, unpublished results); (b) the ring-current effect of one GpG guanine on the H8 resonance of the other guanine, which is negative (shielding) for the 5'-H8 and positive (deshielding) for the 3'-H8 in single-stranded adducts, but has the opposite sign in double-stranded adducts; (c) a deshielding polarization effect of the phosphate 5' to the GpG unit. The different signs of the ring-current effects in single-stranded and double-stranded oligonucleotides originate from the orientation of the guanines in the cis-[Pt(NH3)2(Gua)2]2+ moiety (Gua, guanine), which is left-handed helicoidal in single strands and right-handed helicoidal in double strands. In the platinated dinucleotides (cis-[Pt(NH3)2(GpG)]+, cis-[Pt(NH3)2(d(GpG))]+ and cis-[Pt(NH3)2(d(GpG))]), the guanines assume either the left-handed or the right-handed arrangement, depending on the sugar moiety (ribose or deoxyribose), protonation state at N1 and, in the solid state, on crystal forces. This work shows that chemical shifts contain valuable structural information which is complementary to that extracted from correlated spectroscopy and nuclear Overhauser spectroscopy data. 相似文献

Potential of chlorpyrifos and cypermethrin forming DNA adducts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
DNA adducts consist of DNA monoadducts, DNA intrastrand crosslinks, DNA interstrand crosslinks, and DNA-protein crosslinks. If not repaired or mistakenly repaired, DNA adducts may lead to gene mutations and initiate carcinogenesis. Two insecticides, chlorpyrifos and cypermethrin, were studied for their potential of forming DNA monoadducts, DNA interstrand crosslinks, and DNA-protein crosslinks in primary mouse hepatocytes via the assays of bioluminescence, ethidium bromide fluorescence, and K+-SDS precipitation. DNA interstrand crosslinks were also measured on calf thymus DNA. It was shown that chlorpyrifos could not form DNA adducts. Cypermethrin formed DNA monoadducts and DNA interstrand crosslinks in hepatocytes. However, cypermethrin didn't form DNA interstrand crosslinks on calf thymus DNA and in hepatocytes treated with SKF-525A, a cytochrome P450 inhibitor, which suggests that active metabolites of cypermethrin instead of cypermethrin itself caused DNA interstrand crosslinks and that cytochrome P450 may be involved in the activation of cypermethrin. 相似文献

The anticancer activity of cisplatin arises from its ability to bind covalently to DNA, forming primarily intrastrand cross-links to adjacent purine residues; the most common adducts involve d(GpG) (65%) and d(ApG) (25%) intrastrand cross-links. The incorporation of these platinum adducts in a B-DNA helix induces local distortions, causing bending and unwinding of the DNA. In this work, we used temperature-dependent UV spectroscopy to investigate the unfolding thermodynamics, and associated ionic effects, of two sets of DNA decamer duplexes containing either cis-[Pt(NH(3))(2)[d(GpG]] or cis-[Pt(NH(3))(2) [d(ApG]] cross-links, and their corresponding unmodified duplexes. The platinated duplexes are less stable and unfold with lower T(M)s (and Delta G degrees s) in enthalpy-driven reactions, which indicates a loss of favorable base-pair stacking interactions. The folding thermodynamics and hydration effects for the first set of decamers containing the d(GpG) cross-link was investigated by a combination of titration calorimetry, density, and ultrasound techniques. The hydration parameters showed an uptake of structural water by the platinated duplex and a release of electrostricted water by the control duplex. Relative to the unmodified duplex, the folding of the platinated duplex at 20 degrees C yielded a positive Delta Delta G degrees term [and positive Delta Delta H-Delta(T Delta S) compensation] and a negative differential volume change. The opposite signs of the Delta Delta G degrees and Delta Delta V terms confirmed its uptake of structural water. Further, solvent-accessible surface areas calculations for a similar pair of dodecamer duplexes indicated that the modified duplex has a 503 oeA(2) higher polar and nonpolar surface area that is exposed to the solvent. Therefore, the incorporation of a platinum adduct in duplex DNA disrupts favorable base-pair stacking interactions, yielding a greater exposure of aromatic bases to the solvent, which in turn immobilizes structural water. The overall results correlate nicely with the results reported in the available structural data of nuclear magnetic resonance solution studies. 相似文献

Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent. It reacts with nucleophilic bases in DNA and forms 1,2-d(ApG), 1,2-d(GpG) and 1,3-d(GpTpG) intrastrand crosslinks, interstrand crosslinks and monofunctional adducts. The presence of these adducts in DNA is through to be responsible for the therapeutic efficacy of cisplatin. The exact signal transduction pathway that leads to cell cycle arrest and cell death following treatment with the drug is not known but cell death is believed to be mediated by the recognition of the adducts by cellular proteins. Here we describe the structural information available for cisplatin and related platinum adducts, the interactions of the adducts with cellular proteins and the implications of these interactions for cell survival. 相似文献

The telomeric sequence (T(2)G(4))(4) was platinated in aqueous solutions containing 50 mM LiClO(4), NaClO(4), or KClO(4). The identification of the guanines which reacted with [Pt(NH(3))(3)(H(2)O)](2+) revealed that the same type of folding exists in the presence of the three cations and that the latter determine the relative stabilities of the G-quadruplex structures in the order K(+) > Na(+) > Li(+). The tri-ammine complex yielded ca. 40--90% of adducts, mono- and poly-platinated, bound to 4 guanines out of the 16 guanines in the sequence, in the decreasing amounts G9 > G15 > G3 > G21. The formation of these adducts was interpreted with a G-quadruplex structure obtained by restrained molecular dynamics (rMD) simulations which confirms the schematic model proposed by Williamson et al. [(1989) Cell 59, 871--880]. The bifunctional complexes cis- and trans-[Pt(NH(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](2+) also first reacted with G9 and G15 and gave cross-linked adducts between two guanines, which did not exceed 5% each of the products formed. Both the cis and trans isomers formed a G3-G15 platinum chelate, and the second also formed bis-chelates at both ends of the G-quadruplex structure: G3-G15/G9-G21 and G3-G15/G9-G24. The rMD simulations showed that the cross-linking reactions by the trans complex can occur without disturbing the stacking of the three G-quartets. 相似文献

The cancer chemotherapeutic agent cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) or cisplatin reacts primarily with guanines in DNA to form 1,2-Pt-GG and 1,3-Pt-GNG intrastrand cross-links and, to a lesser extent, G-G interstrand cross-links. Recent NMR evidence has suggested that cisplatin can also form a coordination complex with the phosphodiester internucleotide linkage of DNA. We have examined the effects of the phosphodiester backbone on the reactions of cisplatin with oligodeoxyribonucleotides that lack or contain a GTG sequence. Cisplatin forms a stable adduct with TpT that can be isolated by reversed phase HPLC. The cis-Pt-TpT adduct contains a single Pt, as determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and is resistant to digestion by snake venom phosphodiesterase. Treatment of the adduct with sodium cyanide regenerates TpT. Similar adduct formation was observed when T(pT)(8) was treated with cisplatin, but not when the phosphodiester linkages of T(pT)(8) were replaced with methylphosphonate groups. These results suggest that the platinum may be coordinated with the oxygens of the thymine and possibly with those of the phosphodiester group. As expected, reaction of a 9-mer containing a GTG sequence with cisplatin yielded an adduct that contained a 1,3-Pt-GTG intrastrand cross-link. However, we found that the number and placement of phosphodiesters surrounding a GTG sequence significantly affected intrastrand cross-link formation. Increasing the number of negatively charged phosphodiesters in the oligonucleotide increased the amount of GTG platination. Surrounding the GTG sequence with nonionic methylphosphonate linkages inhibited or eliminated cross-link formation. These observations suggest that interactions between cisplatin and the negatively charged phosphodiester backbone may play an important role in facilitating platination of guanine nucleotides in DNA. 相似文献

The bulky, asymmetric analog of the antitumor drug cisplatin, [PtCl(2)(tmen)] (tmen = N,N,N'-trimethylethylenediamine), was used to produce crosslinks with the dinucleotide d(GpG), modeling the most frequent lesions that cisplatin and its analogs cause to DNA. The ligand tmen was chosen because it is expected to constrain the guanine cis to the NMe(2) group in the adduct [Pt(tmen){d(GpG)}](+) to an orientation perpendicular to the coordination plane and to stabilize the other guanine in an oblique orientation, thus maintaining a head-to-head geometry typical of cisplatin-d(GpG) crosslinks within single- and double-stranded DNA. Of the four possible combinations of tmen chirality (R or S symmetry of the coordinated NHMe group) and crosslink direction (5'-G bound cis to the secondary or the tertiary amino group of tmen), two isomers were preponderantly formed, [Pt(R-tmen){d(GpG)}](+) with 5'-G bound cis to NMe(2) and [Pt(S-tmen){d(GpG)}](+) with 5'-G bound cis to NHMe. The former was shown to have a right-handed R2 orientation of guanines similar to that found in duplex DNA, whereas the latter had a left-handed L1 orientation that modeled cisplatin-d(GpG) adducts within single-stranded DNA. The R2 rotamer was found to be in an equilibrium (as observed using EXSY spectroscopy) with a minor fraction (< or =4%) of a Delta-HT rotamer related to R2 by rotation of the 3'-G about the Pt-N7 bond. The major rotamers R2 and L1 were isolated using reverse-phase HPLC, and their NMR and CD signatures were compared to those of the corresponding rotamers of the less hindered adduct [Pt(dmen)(GpG)](+) (dmen = N,N-dimethylethylenediamine). From this and other comparisons with previously reported platinum dinucleotide complexes, and from molecular modeling, it could be concluded that both steric repulsion between guanine and substituents of the cis amino group and N-H...O6 hydrogen bonding are significant effects favoring the oblique orientation of one guanine base typical of the HH rotamers of [Pt(diamine){d(GpG)}](+) and [Pt(diamine)(GpG)](+) complexes. 相似文献

Single- and double-stranded oligonucleotides containing a single monofunctional cis-[Pt(NH3)2(dG)(N7-N-methyl-2-diazapyrenium)]3+ adduct have been studied at two NaCl concentrations. In 50 mM and 1 M NaCl, the adducts within the single-stranded oligonucleotides are stable. In contrast, they are unstable within the corresponding double-stranded oligonucleotides. In 50 mM NaCl, the bonds between platinum and guanine or N-methyl-2,7-diazapyrenium residues are cleaved and subsequently, intra- or interstrand cross-links are formed as in the reaction between DNA and cis-DDP. In 1 M NaCl, the main reaction is the replacement of N-methyl-2,7-diazapyrenium residues by chloride which generates double-stranded oligonucleotides containing a single monofunctional cis-[Pt(NH3)2(dG)Cl]+ adduct. The rates of closure of these monofunctional adducts to bifunctional cross-links have been studied in 60 mM NaClO4. Within d(TG.CT/AGCA), d(CG.CT/AGCG) and d(AG.CT/AGCT) (the symbol.indicates the location of the adducts in the central sequences of oligonucleotides), the half-lifes (t1/2) of the cis-[Pt(NH3)2(dG)Cl]+ adducts are respectively 12, 6 and 2.8 hr and the cross-linking reactions occur between guanine residues on the opposite strands. Within d(AG.TC/GACT), d(CG.AT/ATCG) and d(TGTG./CACA) or d(TG.TG/CACA) t1/2 are respectively 1.6, 8 and larger than 20 hr and the intrastrand cross-links are formed at the d(AG), d(GA) and d(GTG) sites, respectively. The conclusion is that the rates of conversion of cis-platinum-DNA monofunctional adducts to minor bifunctional cross-links are dependent on base sequence. The potential use of the instability of cis-[Pt(NH3)2(dG)(N7-N-methyl-2-diazapyrenium)]3+ adducts is discussed in the context of the antisense strategy. 相似文献

Interaction of cis-[Pt(NH3)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 with ribose deoxyribose diguanosine phosphates 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The three diguanosine phosphates GpG (4 X 10(-4) M), d(GpG) (10(-5) M), and d(pGpG) (10(-5) M) have been reacted with cis-[Pt(NH3)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 (1 Pt/dinucleotide) in water at pH 5.5 and 37 degrees C. In each case a single product is formed. The three complexes have been characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and circular dichroism (CD) analyses. They are N(7)-N(7) chelates of the metal with an anti-anti configuration of the bases. They present a conformational change upon deprotonation of guanine N(1)H whose pKa is ca. 8.7 (D2O). Their CD spectra, compared to those of the free dinucleotides, exhibit an increase of ellipticity in the 275-nm region, which can be qualitatively related to the characteristic increase reported for platinated DNA and poly(dG) . poly(dC). These results are in favor of the hypothesis of intrastrand cross-linking of adjacent guanines, by the cis-PtII(NH3)2 moiety, after a local denaturation of DNA. 相似文献

Previous work showed that melphalan-induced mutations in the aprt gene of CHO cells are primarily transversions and occur preferentially at G-G-C sequences, which are potential sites for various bifunctional alkylations involving guanine N-7. To identify the DNA lesion(s) which may be responsible for these mutations, an end-labeled DNA duplex containing a frequent site of melphalan-induced mutation in the aprt gene was treated with melphalan, mechlorethamine or phosphoramide mustard. The sequence specificity and kinetics of formation of both interstrand and intrastrand crosslinks were determined. All mustards selectively formed two base-staggered interstrand crosslinks between the 5'G and the G opposite C in the 5'G-G-C sequence. Secondary alkylation was much slower for melphalan than for the other mustards and the resulting crosslink was more stable. Mechlorethamine and phosphoramide mustard induced intrastrand crosslinks between the two contiguous Gs in the G-G-C sequence in double-stranded DNA, but melphalan did not. Molecular dynamic simulations provided a structural explanation for this difference, in that the monofunctionally bound intermediates of mechlorethamine and phosphoramide mustard assumed thermodynamically stable conformations with the second arm in a position appropriate for intrastrand crosslink formation, while the corresponding melphalan monoadduct did not. 相似文献

Raman spectroscopy of DNA modified by intrastrand cross-links of antitumor cisplatin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Raman spectroscopy was employed to characterize the perturbations to DNA conformation induced in DNA by two different intrastrand adducts of antitumor cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cisplatin), namely by its 1,2-GG or 1,3-GTG intrastrand cross-links. We examined short deoxyribooligonucleotide duplexes containing single, site-specific cross-link by Raman spectroscopy and assigned the spectral alterations to conformational changes induced in DNA by 1,2-GG or 1,3-GTG intrastrand CLs determined earlier by other biochemical and biophysical methods. The results confirmed significant perturbations to the B-form DNA backbone due to the intrastrand lesions and that several nucleotides changed their conformation from C2'-endo to C3'-endo. Evidence for a partial transition from B- to A-form was found in several regions of the Raman spectra as well. The spectra also confirmed the different and more extensive distortion induced in B-DNA by 1,3-GTG in comparison with 1,2-GG intrastrand CLs, consistent with their already known high resolution structures. The results of the present work demonstrate that Raman spectroscopy represents a suitable tool to provide insights into structural factors involved in the mechanisms underlying antitumor effects of platinum drugs. 相似文献

Molecular structure of the complex formed between the anticancer drug cisplatin and d(pGpG): C222(1) crystal form 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The three dimensional molecular structure of the adduct formed between the anticancer drug cisplatin and a DNA dinucleotide d(pGpG) has been determined by x-ray diffraction analysis at 1.37 A resolution and refined to a final R-factor of 0.11. This structure, solved by using data from a previously reported crystal form in the space group C222(1), resembles that found in the space group P2(1)2(1)2 (Sherman, et al., Science, 230, 412-417, 1985; ibid, J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 110, 7368-7381, 1988). In both structures, four crystallographically independent cis-[Pt(NH3)2(d(pGpG]] molecules aggregate into a tetrameric cluster that is stabilized by a large number of intermolecular hydrogen bonds and base-base stacking interactions. In each molecule, the platinum atom is coordinated to the N7 atoms of two guanine bases arranged in a head-to-head orientation, resulting in a large dihedral angle between the guanines. Intermolecular guanine-guanine base pairings between different intrastrand crosslinked molecules are used extensively in the crystal lattice. 相似文献

Oligonucleotides modified by clinically ineffective trans-diamminedichloridoplatinum(II) (transplatin) have been shown to be effective modulators of gene expression. This is so because in some nucleotide sequences the 1,3-GNG intrastrand adducts formed by transplatin in double-helical DNA readily rearrange into interstrand cross-links so that they can cross-link the oligonucleotides to their targets. On the other hand, in a number of other sequences these intrastrand adducts are relatively stable, which represents the major difficulty in the clinical use of the antisense transplatin-modified oligonucleotides. Therefore, we examined in this study, the stability of 1,3-GNG intrastrand adducts in double-helical DNA formed by a new antitumor derivative of transplatin, trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2], in the sequence contexts in which transplatin formed relatively stable intrastrand cross-links which did not readily rearranged into interstrand cross-links. We have found that 1,3-GNG intrastrand adducts in double-helical DNA formed by trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2] even in such sequences readily rearrange into interstrand cross-links. This work also suggests that an enhanced frequency of intrastrand cross-links yielded by trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2] is a consequence of the fact that these DNA lesions considerably distort double-helical DNA in far more sequence contexts than parent transplatin. Our results suggest that trans-[Pt(CH3NH2)2Cl2]-modified oligonucleotides represent promising candidates for new agents in antisense or antigene approach. 相似文献
