a novel ternary schiff base ligand (hl) of ono type and its copper (ii) complex weresynthesised using 2-aminophenol and o-acetoacetotoluidide. they have been characterised by theusual analytical and spectral methods. the interaction of the complex with calf-thymus (ct)dna has been investigated by uv-vis, viscosity measurement, cyclic voltammetry anddifferential pulse voltammetry studies. the re...

in depth interaction studies between calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (ct-dna) and a series of four structurally relative palladium(ii) complexes [pd(en)(hb)](no3)2 (a-d), where en is ethylenediamine and heterocyclic base (hb) is 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy, a); 1,10-phenanthroline (phen, b); dipyridoquinoxaline (dpq, c) and dipyridophenazine (dppz, d) (figure 1), were performed. these studies h...

Isotherms of the binding of the anthracycIine antibiotic, adriamycin (adriblastin), to DNA histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic analysis. The results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones reduced the interaction of histones with DNA, (b) binding of the drug to DNA did not change the binding affinity of histone to DNA and, (c) in the explored binding range...

isotherms of the binding of the anthracyciine antibiotic, adriamycin (adriblastin), to dna histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic analysis. the results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones reduced the interaction of histones with dna, (b) binding of the drug to dna did not change the binding affinity of histone to dna and, (c) in the explored binding range of r

two newly-created water-soluble complexes of palladium(ii)/platinum(ii)-dithiocarbamate, [pd/pt(phen)(pyr-dtc)]no3 (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and pyr-dtc = pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate) were synthesized. also, their chemical characteristics are reported in the current research paper. in these complexes, the dithiocarbamato ligand coordinates to pt(ii) or pd(ii) center with two sulfur atoms as bi...

the histone-like protein hu is the most-abundant dna-binding protein in bacteria. the hu protein non-specifically binds and bends dna as a hetero- or homodimer, and can participate in dna supercoiling and dna condensation. it also takes part in dna functions such as replication, recombination, and repair. hu does not recognize any specific sequences but shows a certain degree of specificity to ...

the interaction of brilliant green with herring sperm dna was investigated in detail by spectrometric methods in γ-cyclodextrin systems. on the condition of physiological ph, brilliant green prefers to form the 1:1 inclusion complex with γ-cyclodextrin.all the evidences indicated that the binding modes between γ-cyclodextrin-brilliant green and dna were grooving binding and partial non-classica...
