The macrocyclic ligand, 1,4-bis((1-oxa-4,7,10-triazacyclododecan-7-yl)methyl)benzene (L1) is prepared. L1 binds two Zn(II) ions at neutral pH to form Zn2(L1) as studied by using pH-potentiometric titrations. Zn2(L1) binds two uridines at pH 7.0, I = 0.100 M (NaCl) and the mononuclear analog Zn(L2) (L2 = 1-oxa-4,7,10-triazacyclododecane) binds a single uridine; dissociation constants for both complexes are in the millimolar range. Both complexes promote the cleavage of a simple RNA analog lacking a nucleobase (HpPNP = 2-hydroxypropyl-4-nitrophenylphosphate), and a uridine containing RNA analog UpPNP (uridine-3′-4-nitrophenylphosphate). Plots of the first-order rate constant for cleavage of HpPNP as a function of Zn(L2) concentration from 0.5 mM to 20.0 mM are linear, consistent with weak complexation to substrate Kd > 20 mM. In contrast, first-order rate constants for cleavage of UpPNP by Zn(L2) or Zn2(L1) over similar concentration ranges exhibit a downward curvature, consistent with the formation of a complex between catalyst and UpPNP. Comparison of second-order rate constants (k2 = kcat/Kd) shows that the dinuclear complex Zn2(L1) is a better catalyst than Zn(L2) for both HpPNP and UpPNP cleavage. 相似文献

Sequences that have the capacity to adopt alternative (i.e. non-B) DNA structures in the human genome have been implicated in stimulating genomic instability. Previously, we found that a naturally occurring intra-molecular triplex (H-DNA) caused genetic instability in mammals largely in the form of DNA double-strand breaks. Thus, it is of interest to determine the mechanism(s) involved in processing H-DNA. Recently, we demonstrated that human DHX9 helicase preferentially unwinds inter-molecular triplex DNA in vitro. Herein, we used a mutation-reporter system containing H-DNA to examine the relevance of DHX9 activity on naturally occurring H-DNA structures in human cells. We found that H-DNA significantly increased mutagenesis in small-interfering siRNA-treated, DHX9-depleted cells, affecting mostly deletions. Moreover, DHX9 associated with H-DNA in the context of supercoiled plasmids. To further investigate the role of DHX9 in the recognition/processing of H-DNA, we performed binding assays in vitro and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays in U2OS cells. DHX9 recognized H-DNA, as evidenced by its binding to the H-DNA structure and enrichment at the H-DNA region compared with a control region in human cells. These composite data implicate DHX9 in processing H-DNA structures in vivo and support its role in the overall maintenance of genomic stability at sites of alternatively structured DNA. 相似文献
