Publication Abstract from PubMed
We report an atomic resolution X-ray crystal structure containing both enantiomers of rac-[Ru(phen)2dppz](2+) with the d(ATGCAT)2 DNA duplex (phen = phenanthroline; dppz = dipyridophenazine). The first example of any enantiomeric pair crystallized with a DNA duplex shows different orientations of the Lambda and Delta binding sites, separated by a clearly defined structured water monolayer. Job plots show that the same species is present in solution. Each enantiomer is bound at a TG/CA step and shows intercalation from the minor groove. One water molecule is directly located on one phenazine N atom in the Delta-enantiomer only.
