Imino proton NMR guides the reprogramming of A•T specific minor groove binders for mixed base pair recognition
Sequence-specific binding to DNA is crucial for targeting transcription factor-DNA complexes to modulate gene expression. The heterocyclic diamidine, DB2277, specifically recognizes a single G•C base pair in the minor groove of mixed base pair sequences of the type AAAGTTT. NMR spectroscopy reveals the presence of major and minor species of the bound compound. To understand the principles that ...
متن کاملEffects of sequence and length on imino proton exchange and base pair opening kinetics in DNA oligonucleotide duplexes.
The base catalysed imino proton exchange in DNA oligonucleotides of different sequences and lengths was studied by 1H-NMR saturation recovery experiments. The self-complementary sequences studied were GCGCGAATTCGCGC (I), CGCGAATTCGCG (II), GCGAATTCGC (III), and CGCGATCGCG (IV). The evaluation of base pair lifetimes was made after correction for the measured 'absence of added catalyst' effect wh...
متن کاملStructural and dynamic properties of a fluorouracil-adenine base pair in DNA studied by proton NMR.
An oligodeoxynucleotide duplex containing the chemotherapeutic agent 5-fluorouracil (FU) has been constructed by solid phase phosphotriester synthesis and has been studied in solution by proton NMR. In this study, we provide the first structural characterization of a DNA complex containing a FU.A base pair. It has been determined that the 7-mer duplex containing a central FU.A base pair adopts ...
