Interaction of actinomycin D, ethidium quinacrine daunorubicin, and tetralysine with DNA:31P NMR chemical shift and relaxation investigation

Abstract: The binding of actinomycin D, ethidium, quinacrine, daunorubicin, and tetralysine to DNA has been investigated using 31P NMR. Titration of DNA with actinomycin yields a new downfield peak or overlapping peaks as would be expected from the slow dissociation kinetics of this compound. The other intercalators shift the DNA 31P signal downfield as a single exchange averaged peak. Tetralysine causes a slight upfield shift. The chemical shift titration curves for the intercalators are sigmoid curves suggesting that … Show more

“…Purely electrostatic associations between drug and nucleic acid, however, produce only small and generally upfield 31 P chemical shifts. [31,32] Our results on large observed downfield shift of 1.29 and 1.05 ppm in T1pG2 and C5pA6, respectively, are supportive of intercalation of adriamycin chromophore between T1 . .…”

“…Also, 31 P chemical shift of the DNA phosphate bond is a valuable addition technique for monitoring conformational changes in DNA [31]. The 31 P chemical shift is sensitive to interactions of metal complexes with DNA [32,33]. The two amino acids chosen contain an aromatic and an aliphatic side chain and their comparison was attempted.…”

“…Intercalators induce a downfield shift of the phosphorous resonances in DNA, which is roughly proportional to the unwinding angle of the bases surrounding the binding site (24). On titration with the monomer, the three 31P signals in d(CpGpCpG) continuously moved downfield by 0.06-0.18 ppm depending on the resonance (not shown).…”
