ISOHELICITY AND PHASING IN DRUG-DNA SEQUENCE RECOGNITION: CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF A TRIS(BENZIMIDAZOLE)-OLIGONUCLEOTIDE COMPLEX

Overview

The crystal structure is reported of a tris(benzimidazole) analogue of the minor-groove drug Hoechst 33258 bound to the sequence d(CGCAAATTTGCG)2. The structure has been refined to an R factor of 17.4% at a resolution of 2.2 A. The ligand covers approximately 7 1/2 base pairs, including the 5'-AAATTT central sequence. This has an exceptionally narrow minor-groove width, together with high propeller twists for individual base pairs. The ligand has a highly twisted structure, with an overall twist of 50 degrees between aromatic rings. All three benzimidazole subunits are in register with the DNA, and there is a symmetric group of six hydrogen bonds between ligand and A.T base-pair edges. By contrast, the ligand does not show an optimal isohelical fit to the DNA. The correct phasing of drug and DNA base pairs is ensured by a number of changes to the DNA such that the central 5'-AAATTT region is slightly unwound relative to the structures of other noncovalent minor-groove drug complexes.
