TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: DNA sequence specificity of triplex-binding ligands

We have examined the ability of naphthylquinoline, a 2,7-disubstituted anthraquinone and BePI, a benzo[e]pyri-doindole derivative, to stabilize parallel DNA triplexes of different base composition. 1 Fluorescence melting studies, with both inter- and intramolecular triplexes, show that all three ligands stabilize triplexes that contain blocks of TAT has no effect on triplexes formed with third strands composed of (TC)nor (CCT)n, but sta-bilizes triplexes that contain (TTC)n | Eur.

Fluorescence melting studies with both inter- and intramolecular triplexes show that all three ligands stabilize triplexes that contain blocks of TAT triplets. Naphthylquinoline has no effect on triplexes formed with third strands composed of TC n or CCT n but stabilizes triplexes that contain TTC n. In contrast BePI slightly destabilizes the triplexes that are formed at TC n CCT n and TTC n. 2 7-Anthraquinone stabilizes TC n CCT n and TTC n although it has the greatest effect on the latter. DNase I footprinting studies confirm that triplexes formed with CCT n are stabilized by the 2 7-disubstituted amidoanthraquinone but not by naphthylquinoline. Both ligands stabilize the triplex formed with CCTT n and neither affects the complex with CT n. We suggest that BePI and naphthylquinoline can only bind between adjacent TAT triplets while the anthraquinone has a broader sequence of selectivity. These differences may be attributed to the presence naphthylquinoline and BePI or absence anthraquinone of a positive charge on the aromatic portion of the ligand which prevents intercalation adjacent to C GC triplets. The most stable structures are formed when the stacked rings bases or ligand alternate between charged and uncharged species. Triplexes containing alternating C GC and TAT triplets are not stabilized by ligands
