== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==

DNA methylation is a prevalent regulatory modification in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. N(1)-methyladenine (m(1)A) and N(6)-methyladenine (m(6)A) have been found to be capable of altering DNA structures via disturbing Watson-Crick base pairing. However, little has been known about their influences on non-B DNA structures, which are associated with genetic instabilities. In this work, we investigated the effects of m(1)A and m(6)A on both the structure and thermodynamic stability of a newly reported DNA minidumbbell formed by two TTTA tetranucleotide repeats. As revealed by the results of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic studies, both m(1)A and m(6)A favored the formation of a T.m(1)A and T.m(6)A Hoogsteen base pair, respectively. More intriguingly, the m(1)A and m(6)A modifications brought about stabilization and destabilization effects on the DNA minidumbbell, respectively. This work provides new biophysical insights into the effects of adenine methylation on the structure and thermodynamic stability of DNA.
