Alteration of the DNA double helix conformation upon incorporation of mispairs as revealed by energy computations and pathways of point mutations.

Abstract:

:To explain biochemical and genetic data on spontaneous nucleotide replacements in nucleic acid biosynthesis all the 8 mispairs in normal tautomeric forms have been considered. Possible B-conformations of DNA fragments containing each of such mispairs incorporated between Watson-Crick pairs have been found using computations of the energy of non-bonded interactions via classical potential functions. These conformations have no reduced interatomic contacts. The values of each dihedral angle of the sugar-phosphate backbone fall within the limits of those of double-helical fragments of B-DNA in crystals. These values differ from those of the corresponding angles for the low-energy polynucleotide conformations consisting of canonical pairs by no more than 30 degrees (except for the fragment with the U:U pair for which the C4'-C3'-O-P angle differs by about 50 degrees). The difference in experimentally observed frequencies of various nucleotide replacements in DNA biosynthesis correlates with the difference in the energy of non-bonded interactions and with the extent of the sugar-phosphate backbone distortion for the fragments containing the mispairs which serve as intermediates for the replacements.
