DNA-directed base pair opening.

Strand separation is a fundamental molecular process essential for the reading of the genetic information during DNA replication, transcription and recombination. However, DNA melting in physiological conditions in which the double helix is expected to be stable represents a challenging problem. Current models propose that negative supercoiling destabilizes the double helix and promotes the spo...

A rhodium(III) complex for high-affinity DNA base-pair mismatch recognition.

A rhodium(III) complex, rac-[Rh(bpy)(2)phzi](3+) (bpy, 2,2'-bipyridine; phzi, benzo[a]phenazine-5,6-quinone diimine) has been designed as a sterically demanding intercalator targeted to destabilized mismatched sites in double-helical DNA. The complex is readily synthesized by condensation of the phenazine quinone with the corresponding diammine complex. Upon photoactivation, the complex promote...

A structural snapshot of base-pair opening in DNA.

The response of double-helical DNA to torsional stress may be a driving force for many processes acting on DNA. The 1.55-A crystal structure of a duplex DNA oligonucleotide d(CCAGGCCTGG)(2) with an engineered crosslink in the minor groove between the central guanine bases depicts how the duplex can accommodate such torsional stress. We have captured in the same crystal two rather different conf...

Optimization of single-base-pair mismatch discrimination in oligonucleotide microarrays.

The discrimination between perfect-match and single-base-pair-mismatched nucleic acid duplexes was investigated by using oligonucleotide DNA microarrays and nonequilibrium dissociation rates (melting profiles). DNA and RNA versions of two synthetic targets corresponding to the 16S rRNA sequences of Staphylococcus epidermidis (38 nucleotides) and Nitrosomonas eutropha (39 nucleotides) were hybri...

Atomistic model of DNA: phonons and base-pair opening.

A fully atomistic model of B-DNA using the CHARMM (chemistry at Harvard molecular mechanics) force field is presented. Molecular dynamics simulations were used to prepare an equilibrium structure. The Hessian of interatomic forces obtained from CHARMM for the equilibrium structure was used as input to a large scale phonon calculation. The calculated dispersion relations at low frequency are com...
