SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF A DNA DUPLEX CONTAINING THE CIS-PT(NH3)2[D(-GTG-)-N7-(G)-N7(G)N7(G)]ADDUCT AS DETERMINED WITH HIGH FIELD NMR AND MOLECULAR MECHANICS/DYNAMICS
Overview
The solution structure of the cis-Pt-GTG adduct in the double-stranded, oligomer d(CTCTAGTGCTCAC).td(GTGAGCACTAGAG) was studied with, high-resolution NMR techniques. For model building, the distance, information obtained from two-dimensional NOE experiments was used in, molecular mechanic computations and molecular dynamic structure, refinements. The structural distortion upon platination appears to be, restricted to the base pairs Pt-G6.C21 and T7.A20; Pt-G8.C19 forms a, normal Watson-Crick base pair. T7 is positioned in the minor groove and, stacks with the highly propeller-twisted Pt-G6. There is no hydrogen, bonding between T7 and A20. The complementary strand is undistorted; A20, stacks with its flanking cytidines (C19 and C21) as in regular B-DNA. The, duplex is locally unwound (from base pair A5.T22 to G8.C19: 19 degrees), and is slightly kinked (20 degrees) at the platination site. The platinum, coordination distorts the DNA structure at the 5' side of the, platinated-GTG-sequence and changes the minor groove face.
