Some characteristics of DNA strand scission by macromolecular antitumor antibiotic C-1027 containing a novel enediyne chromophore

Abstract: A new macromolecular antitumor antibiotic, C-1027, shows potent cytotoxic effects and DNA cutting activity. The DNA cleaving properties of C-1027 are compared with those of other enediyne compounds such as neocarzinostatin, esperamicin A1, and calicheamicin gamma 1. Even in the absence of thiols or reductants, the antibiotic C-1027 has high DNA breakage ability. Of special interest is the fact that C-1027 causes strand breaks two base pairs apart at specific sites such as 5'-TAT/3'-ATA and 5'-AGA/3'-TCT (cleav… Show more

“…In contrast, radiomimetic drugs usually cause only a subset of the IR-induced DNA damage. C-1027 primarily attacks the deoxyribose C-4Ј atom, and to a lesser extent C-1Ј, and produces both single and double strand breaks by cleaving DNA strands two base pairs apart at specific sequences (5Ј-TAT and 5Ј-AGA) (21,36). Radiomimetic drug-induced DNA damage is also more sequence-or regionspecific, as opposed to random damage induced by IR (37).…”

“…In the controls (lanes 1 and 7), the majority of radiolabel remained within the well. However, increased migration of 14 C-radiolabeled DNA into the gel was apparent with 0.5-5 nM C-1027 (lanes 8-10) and 0.5-2 µM neocarzinostatin (lanes [11][12][13]. DNA from cells X-irradiated with 2-120 Gy (lanes 1-6) was used to compare enediynes with an agent that produces a predictable amount of DNA damage Figure 2b is a graphic representation of data from multiple pulse-field gels showing that the fraction of 14 C-radiolabeled DNA remaining in the well decreased as the X-ray dose increased.…”

“…In addition, LDM is a new potent anti-angiogenesis agent with markedly antimetastatic activity [9]. The potent efficacy of LDM was ascribed to its DNA strand-scission activity [13]. LDM is presently undergoing phase II clinical trials in China.…”
