Monofunctional DNA-platinum(II) adducts block frequently DNA polymerases.
The question of whether monofunctional DNA platinum(II) adducts block synthesis of DNA by purified DNA polymerases of different types and origin has been investigated by comparing the time dependence of synthesis arrest and of DNA adduct formation. Activated salmon testis DNA is used as a suitable substrate for DNA synthesis allowing to probe inhibition by platinum(II) monoadducts for the varie...
متن کاملMonofunctional and Interstrand DNA Adducts of Platinum(II) Complexes
The effects produced in DNA by monofunctional or interstrand adducts of platinum(II) complexes have been summarized. The monofunctional adducts destabilize DNA in a sequence-dependent manner via conformational distortions, which may have a denaturational character. It has been suggested that this conformational alteration facilitates in DNA the formation of the bidentate DNA adducts, whose form...
متن کاملFormation of monofunctional cisplatin-DNA adducts in carbonate buffer.
Carbonate in its various forms is an important component in blood and the cytosol. Since, under conditions that simulate therapy, carbonate reacts with cisplatin to form carbonato complexes, one of which is taken up and/or modified by the cell [C.R. Centerwall, J. Goodisman, D.J. Kerwood, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 127 (2005) 12768-12769], cisplatin-carbonato complexes may be important in the mechanism...
متن کاملContribution of monofunctional adducts formed by furocoumarins with DNA to the inhibition of nucleic acids synthesis.
In addition to the bifunctional adducts (cross-linkages), that furocoumarins on radiation at 365 nm form in DNA, monofunctional adducts also proved able to inhibit the nucleic acid synthesis in Ehrlich ascites tumor cells.
متن کاملReactivity of monofunctional cis-platinum adducts as a function of DNA sequence.
The purpose of this work was to study the chemical reactivity of monofunctional cis-platinum-nucleic acid adducts as a function of nucleic acid sequence. The first part of the paper deals with the formation of these adducts. It is shown that the ternary nucleic acid-cis-platinum-ethidium bromide complexes in which ethidium bromide and nucleotide residues are cross-linked by cis-platinum, are re...
