NMR studies of chromomycin A3 interaction with DNA   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The binding of chromomycin A3 to calf thymus DNA and poly(dG-dC) has been studied by 13C and 1H NMR with emphasis on the mode of binding, the role of Mg2+, and pH effects. The most prominent changes in the DNA base pair 13C NMR resonances upon complexation with chromomycin were observed for G and C bases, consistent with the G-C preference exhibited by this compound. Comparison of the 13C spectrum of DNA-bound chromomycin A3 with that of DNA-bound actinomycin D, a known intercalator, showed many similarities in the base pair resonances. This suggested the possibility that chromomycin A3 binds via an intercalative mechanism. 1H NMR studies in the imino proton, low-field region of the spectrum provided additional evidence in support of this binding mode. In the low-field spectrum of chromomycin A3 bound to calf thymus DNA, a small shoulder was observed on the upfield side of the G-C imino proton peak. Similarly, in the chromomycin A3 complex with poly(dG-dC), a well-resolved peak was found upfield from the G-C imino proton peak. These results are expected for ligands that bind by intercalation. Furthermore, in both the calf thymus and poly(dG-dC) drug complexes (in the presence of Mg2+) a broad peak was also present downfield (approximately 16 ppm from TSP) from the DNA imino protons. This was attributed to the C-9 phenolic hydroxyl proton on the chromomycin chromophore. Visible absorbance spectra at different pH values showed that the role of Mg2+ in the binding of chromomycin A3 to DNA is more than simple neutralization of the drug's anionic change.  相似文献

The antitumor antibiotics chromomycin A(3) (CHR) and mithramycin (MTR) are known to inhibit macromolecular biosynthesis by reversibly binding to double stranded DNA with a GC base specificity via the minor groove in the presence of a divalent cation such as Mg(2+). Earlier reports from our laboratory showed that the antibiotics form two types of complexes with Mg(2+): complex I with 1:1 stoichiometry and complex II with 2:1 stoichiometry in terms of the antibiotic and Mg(2+). The binding potential of an octanucleotide, d(TATGCATA)(2), which contains one potential site of association with the above complexes of the two antibiotics, was examined using spectroscopic techniques such as absorption, fluorescence, and circular dichroism. We also evaluated thermodynamic parameters for the interaction. In spite of the presence of two structural moieties of the antibiotic in complex II, a major characteristic feature was the association of a single ligand molecule per molecule of octameric duplex in all cases. This indicated that the modes of association for the two types of complexes with the oligomeric DNA were different. The association was dependent on the nature of the antibiotics. Spectroscopic characterization along with analysis of binding and thermodynamic parameters showed that differences in the mode of recognition by complexes I and II of the antibiotics with polymeric DNA existed at the oligomeric level. Analysis of the thermodynamic parameters led us to propose a partial accommodation of the ligand in the groove without the displacement of bound water molecules and supported earlier results on the DNA structural transition from B --> A type geometry as an obligatory requirement for the accommodation of the bulkier complex II of the two drugs. The role of the carbohydrate moieties of the antibiotics in the DNA recognition process was indicated when we compared the DNA binding properties with the same type of Mg(2+) complex for the two antibiotics.  相似文献

The circular dichroism spectra of complexes of the antibiotics daunomycin, nogalamycin, chromomycin, and mithramycin with calf thymus DNA have been measured over a range of drug/DNA ratios. The similarity of the CD spectra of bound chromomycin and mithramycin suggests that they have very similar binding sites, which produce strong effects on the CD spectra of the bound drugs, and remove the differences arising from local stereochemistry in the free drugs. It was found that it was not possible to predict whether the antibiotics intercalated, from studies of the CD spectra alone, even when comparisons were made with the CD spectra of aminoacridine–DNA complexes with intercalating or nonintercalating ligands.  相似文献

The interaction of chromomycin A3 with the oligodeoxyribonucleotides 1, d(ATGCAT), 2, d(ATCGAT), 3, d(TATGCATA), and 4, d(ATAGCTAT), has been investigated by 1H and 31P NMR. In the presence of Mg2+, chromomycin binds strongly to the three GC-containing oligomers 1, 3, and 4 but not to the CG-containing oligomer 2. The proton chemical shift changes for 1 and 3 are similar, and these DNA duplexes appear to bind with a stoichiometry of 2 drugs:1 Mg2+:1 duplex. The same stoichiometry of 2 drugs:1 duplex is confirmed with 4; however, proton chemical shift changes differ. An overall C2 symmetry is exhibited by the drug complex with 1, 3, and 4. At a molar ratio of 2.0 (drugs:duplex), no free DNA proton NMR signals remain. Two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser exchange spectroscopy (NOESY) of the saturated chromomycin complex with 1 and 3 positions both chromomycinone hydroxyls and the E carbohydrates in the minor groove and provides evidence suggesting that the B carbohydrates lie on the major-groove side. This is supported by several dipolar coupling cross-peaks between the drug and the DNA duplex. Drug-induced conformational changes in duplex 1 are evaluated over a range of NOESY mixing times and found to possess some characteristics of both B-DNA and A-DNA, where the minor groove is wider and shallower. A widening of the minor groove is essential for the DNA duplex to accommodate two drug molecules. This current minor-groove model is a substantial revision of our earlier major-groove model [Keniry, M.A., Brown, S.C., Berman, E., & Shafer, R.H. (1987) Biochemistry 26, 1058-1067] and is in agreement with the model recently proposed by Gao and Patel [Gao, X., & Patel, D. J. (1989a) Biochemistry 28, 751-762].  相似文献

Chromomycin A3 (CHRA3) is an antitumor antibiotic which binds to Mg2+. In the present communication, we show, by means of equilibrium spectroscopic studies (such as absorption, fluorescence and circular dichroism), that two types of CHRA3-Mg2+ complexes (of 1:1 and 1.9:1 stoichiometries in terms of CHRA3:Mg2+, respectively) are formed depending on the concentrations of CHRA3 and Mg2+. The rate constant and activation energy for the formation of two complexes are different, thereby reinforcing the proposition that they are different molecular species. This observation is novel and significant in order to understand the anticancer property of the drug. It also provides explanation for earlier observations that site, affinity parameters and mode of interaction of the drug with DNA in the presence of Mg2+ depend on the relative concentration of Mg2+.  相似文献

Anti-cancer antibiotics, chromomycin A3 (CHR) and mithramycin (MTR) inhibit DNA directed RNA synthesis in vivo by binding reversibly to template DNA in the minor groove with GC base specificity, in the presence of divalent cations like Mg2+. Under physiological conditions, (drug)2Mg2+ complexes formed by the antibiotics are the potential DNA binding ligands. Structures of CHR and MTR differ in their saccharide residues. Scrutiny of the DNA binding properties reveal significant differences in their sequence selectivity, orientation and stoichiometry of binding. Here, we have analyzed binding and thermodynamic parameters for the interaction of the antibiotics with a model oligonucleotide sequence, d(TAGCTAGCTA)2 to understand the role of sugars. The oligomer contains two potential binding sites (GpC) for the ligands. The study illustrates that the drugs bind differently to the sequence. (MTR)2Mg2+ binds to both sites whereas (CHR)2Mg2+ binds to a single site. UV melting profiles for the decanucleotide saturated with the ligands show that MTR bound oligomer is highly stabilized and melts symmetrically. In contrast, with CHR, loss of symmetry in the oligomer following its association with a single (CHR)2Mg2+ complex molecule leads to a biphasic melting curve. Results have been interpreted in the light of saccharide dependent differences in ligand flexibility between the two antibiotics.  相似文献

The interactions of the antitumor antibiotics, chromomycin A3, with a variety of metal cations in the pH range of 3.0–8.5 were systematically studied by CD, absorption, and 1H-nmr spectroscopies. Results were compared with those obtained in the presence of increasing amounts of calf thymus DNA. The negatively charged chromomycin A3, pKa 6.3, forms aggregates that become ordered and smaller in size, in the presence of variety of metal cations. Spectrophotometric titrations have shown that binding of the neutral drug to DNA at pH 4.5 does not require divalent cations, although the strength of the binding is greatly enhanced in their presence. At higher pH values (> 7.0) and low DNA/drug ratio ( > 20), the metal cations are necessary to induce the binding between chromomycin A3 and DNA. At higher DNA/drug ratios (> 100: 1), an appreciable proportion of the drug is bound even in the absence of divalent cations. Its binding affinity to the DNA is enhanced in the presence of these cations and at low pH values. Therefore, we conclude that chromomycin A3 binds in two related modes, in the presence and in the absence of divalent cations. The spectral data accumulated indicate the metal cation is involved in the binding of the drug to the DNA by forming a drug–metal–DNA ternary complex.  相似文献

Here we have examined the association of an aureolic acid antibiotic, chromomycin A3 (CHR), with Cu2+. CHR forms a high affinity 2:1 (CHR:Cu2+) complex with dissociation constant of 0.08 × 10−10 M2 at 25°C, pH 8.0. The affinity of CHR for Cu2+ is higher than those for Mg2+ and Zn2+ reported earlier from our laboratory. CHR binds preferentially to Cu2+ in presence of equimolar amount of Zn2+. Complex formation between CHR and Cu2+ is an entropy driven endothermic process. Difference between calorimetric and van’t Hoff enthalpies indicate the presence of multiple equilibria, supported from biphasic nature of the kinetics of association. Circular dichroism spectroscopy show that [(CHR)2:Cu2+] complex assumes a structure different from either of the Mg2+ and Zn2+ complex reported earlier. Both [(CHR)2:Mg2+] and [(CHR)2:Zn2+] complexes are known to bind DNA. In contrast, [(CHR)2:Cu2+] complex does not interact with double helical DNA, verified by means of Isothermal Titration Calorimetry of its association with calf thymus DNA and the double stranded decamer (5′-CCGGCGCCGG-3′). In order to interact with double helical DNA, the (antibiotic)2 : metal (Mg2+ and Zn2+) complexes require a isohelical conformation. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy shows that the Cu2+ complex adopts a distorted octahedral structure, which cannot assume the required conformation to bind to the DNA. This report demonstrates the negative effect of a bivalent metal upon the DNA binding property of CHR, which otherwise binds to DNA in presence of metals like Mg2+and Zn2+. The results also indicate that CHR has a potential for chelation therapy in Cu2+ accumulation diseases. However cytotoxicity of the antibiotic might restrict the use.  相似文献

Chromomycin A3 binds to left-handed poly(dG-m5dC)   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The interaction of chromomycin A3 (an antitumor antibiotic) with right-handed and left-handed polynucleotides has been studied by absorbance, fluorescence, circular dichroism, 31P-NMR and 1H-NMR techniques. Binding to either the B form of poly(dG-dC) or the Z form of poly(dG-m5dC) shifts the absorbance maximum to higher wavelength and enhances the fluorescence of the drug. Circular dichroic spectra of solutions containing various concentrations of chromomycin A3 and fixed concentrations of either B or Z polynucleotides show well defined isoelliptic points at similar wavelengths. At the isoelliptic point, the drug complex with B DNA exhibits positive ellipticity while with Z DNA it exhibits negative ellipticity. 31P-NMR spectra of the chromomycin A3 complex with the Z form of poly(dG-m5dC) demonstrate that the Z conformation is retained in the drug complex up to one molecule drug/four base pairs. At Mg2+ concentrations lower than that necessary to stabilize the left-handed conformation of poly(dG-m5dC) alone, 31P analysis shows that chromomycin A3 can bind simultaneously to both the B and Z conformations of poly(dG-m5dC), with no effect on the B-Z equilibrium. These data demonstrate that chromomycin A3 binds to left-handed poly(dG-m5dC) with retention of the left-handed conformation up to saturating drug concentrations.  相似文献

Mithramycin (MTR) is an anti-cancer antibiotic that blocks the macromolecular biosynthesis via reversible interaction with DNA template in the presence of bivalent metal ion such as Mg2+. In absence of DNA, mithramycin forms two types of complexes with Mg2+, complex I (with 1:1 stoichiometry in terms of MTR: Mg2+) and complex II (with 1:2 stoichiometry in terms of MTR: Mg2+). In an eukaryotic system, the drug would interact with chromatin, a protein-DNA complex. We have employed the spectroscopic techniques such as absorption and fluorescence to study the interaction of MTR: Mg2+ complexes with rat liver chromatin. In this report, we have shown that the two types of ligands have different binding potentials with the same chromatin. This supports our proposition that complexes I and II, are different molecular species. We have also shown that the histone protein(s) reduce the binding potential and the number of available sites for both ligands.  相似文献

The binding of mithramycin A to the d(A1T2G3C4A5T6) duplex was investigated by 1H NMR and found to be similar to that of its analogue chromomycin A3. In the presence of Mg2+, mithramycin binds strongly to d(ATGCAT)2. On the basis of the two-dimensional NOESY spectrum, the complex formed possesses C2 symmetry at a stoichiometry of two drugs per duplex (2:1) and is in slow chemical exchange on the NMR time scale. NOESY experiments reveal contacts from the E-pyranose of mithramycin to the terminal and nonterminal adenine H2 proton of DNA and from the drug hydroxyl proton to both G3NH2 protons, C4H1' proton, and A5H1' proton. These data place the drug chromophore and E pyranose on the minor groove side of d(ATGCAT)2. NOE contacts from the A-, B-, C-, and D-pyranoses of mithramycin to several deoxyribose protons suggest that the A- and B-rings are oriented along the sugar-phosphate backbone of G3-C4, while the C- and D-rings are located along the sugar-phosphate backbone of A5-T6. These drug-DNA contacts are very similar to those found for chromomycin binding to d(ATGCAT)2. Unlike chromomycin, the NOESY spectrum of mithramycin at the molar ratio of one drug per duplex reveals several chemical exchange cross-peaks corresponding to the drug-free and drug-bound proton resonances. From the intensity of these cross-peaks and the corresponding diagonal peaks, the off-rate constant was estimated to be 0.4 s-1. These data suggest that the exchange rate of mithramycin binding to d(ATGCAT)2 is faster than that of chromomycin.  相似文献

The interaction of native calf thymus DNA with the Pd(II) complex, PdCl2(LL) (LL = chelating diamine ligand: N,N-dimethyltrimethylenediamine), in 10 mM Hepes aqueous solutions at neutral pH has been monitored as a function of metal complex/DNA molar ratio by UV absorption spectrophotometry, circular dichroism (CD), viscosimetry, and fluorescence spectroscopy. The results support two modes of interaction. In particular, this complex showed absorption hypochromism and then hyperchromism, increase in melting temperature, and some structural changes in specific viscosity when bound to calf thymus DNA. The binding constant determined using absorption measurement is 2.69.10(3) M(-1). As evidenced by the increasing fluorescence of methylene blue-DNA solutions in the presence of increasing amounts of metal complex, PdCl(2)(LL) is able to displace the methylene blue intercalated into DNA, but not so completely, as indicated by partial intercalation. CD spectral changes in two steps and viscosity decrease confirm our conclusions.  相似文献

The interaction of native calf thymus DNA with the cationic Ni(II) complex of 5-triethyl ammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylendiimine (NiL2+), in 1 mM Tris-HCl aqueous solutions at neutral pH, has been monitored as a function of the metal complex-DNA molar ratio by UV absorption spectrophotometry, circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The dramatic modification of the DNA CD spectrum, the appearance of a broad induced CD band in the range 350-400 nm, the strong increase of the DNA melting temperature (Tm) and the fluorescence quenching of ethidium bromide-DNA solutions, in the presence of increasing amounts of the NiL2+ metal complex, support the existence of a tight intercalative interaction of NiL2+ with DNA, analogous to that recently reported for both ZnL2+ and CuL2+. The intrinsic binding constant (Kb) and the interaction stoichiometry (s), determined by UV spectrophotometric titration, are equal to 4.3 × 106 M−1 and 1.0 base pair per metal complex, respectively. Interestingly, the value of Kb is slightly higher and 10 times higher than that relative to the CuL2+-DNA and the ZnL2+-DNA systems, respectively. Speculations can be performed to rationalize the observed trend, on the basis of the electronic and geometrical structures of the three complexes of the same ligand. Analogously to what previously observed for CuL2+, the shape of the CD of the NiL2+-DNA system at NiL2+-DNA molar ratios higher than 0.5 is indicative of the formation of supramolecular aggregates in solutions, as a possible consequence of the electrostatic interaction between the cationic complex and the negatively charged phosphate groups of DNA.  相似文献

The complexes [Fe(Sal2trien)]NO3 and Cu(Sal2trien) have been synthesized and their interaction with calf thymus DNA has been investigated for the first time using UV spectra, fluorescence spectra, thermal denaturation, and viscosity measurements. The experimental results show conformably that the mode of binding of the complex [Fe(Sal2trien)]NO3 to DNA is nonclassical electrostatic action, but the mode of binding of the complex Cu(Sal2trien) to DNA is classical intercalation.  相似文献

Two histones from calf thymus, the slightly lysine-rich histone f2a2 and the arginine-rich f3, were combined separately, with homologous DNA. The complexes were reconstituted by means of guanidine hydrochloride gradient dialysis, and their circular dichroic (CD) spectra were examined in 0.14 M NaCl. The CD spectra of f2a2-DNA complexes are characterized by a positive band at 272 nm which is blue-shifted and greatly enhanced relative to the corresponding band for native DNA. This type of CD change was noted previously with f2a1-DNA and f2b-DNA complexes. In contrast, f3 histone causes only minor distortions in the DNA CD spectrum, and their character depends upon the state of the two sulfhydryl groups in f3. When the cysteines are reduced, f3-DNA complexes have a slightly increased positive band with a small blue shift; when oxidized disulfide is the predominant form, this CD band becomes slightly smaller than native DNA value. This laboratory has now examined complexes reconstituted from DNA and all five histones of calf thymus. The sum of the CD spectra of these complexes, although very similar to the CD curve for reconstituted complexes containing whole histone, does not approximate that of chromatin; the consequence of this observation is discussed.  相似文献
