Abstract:
:Oligoamines (spermidine, dipropylenetriamine and propylenediamine) were covalently attached to acridine via a hexamethylene linker. These oligoamine-acridine conjugates were efficiently bound to gap sites in substrate DNA, and promoted the DNA hydrolysis by a homogeneous Ce(IV)/ethylenediamine-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetate (EDTA) complex at these sites. In contrast, the hydrolysis of the double-stranded portion in the DNA was little affected by these conjugates, although they were strongly bound thereto by the intercalation of their acridine moieties. As a result, the gap site was selectively and efficiently hydrolyzed by combining the Ce(IV)/EDTA complex with the oligoamine--acridine conjugate. Either the oligoamine or the acridine was only poorly active for the purpose, substantiating the essential role of cooperation between them. The promotion of gap-selective DNA hydrolysis by the conjugates has been ascribed to electrostatic stabilization of a negatively charged transition state by their positive charges.
