Abstract:The sequence specificity and intensity of DNA damage induced by six peptide-tethered platinum complexes was compared to cisplatin and Pt(en)Cl(2). DNA damage was investigated in pUC19 plasmid and in intact HeLa cells, and quantitatively analyzed using a Taq DNA polymerase/linear amplification assay. The DNA sequence specificity of the peptide-platinum compounds was found to be very similar to cisplatin and Pt(en)Cl(2), with runs of consecutive guanines being the most intensely damaged sites. The observed reactivity of the peptide-platinum complexes towards plasmid DNA was lower compared to cisplatin and Pt(en)Cl(2), with the glycine-tethered complex 3 and the phenylalanine-tethered complex 4 producing the highest relative damage intensity, followed by (in decreasing order) lysine-tethered (5), arginine-tethered (6), serine-tethered (7) and glutamate-tethered (8). The reactivity of the peptide-platinum complexes towards cellular DNA was also lower compared to cisplatin and Pt(en)Cl(2). For most investigated complexes, the relative damage intensities were found to be similar in cells compared to plasmid DNA, but were greatly reduced for 3 and 4. The lysine-tethered 5 complex produced the highest DNA damage intensity in cells followed by (in decreasing order) 6, 7, 3, 4 and 8.
