Abstract:
:Aminoglycosides have been shown to target A-form nucleic acids. Our work has previously shown that neomycin (and other aminoglycosides) bind and stabilize DNA/RNA triplexes and other A-form nucleic acids. We report herein the unexpected B-form duplex stabilization shown by aminoglycoside dimers (neomycin-neomycin and neomycin-tobramycin). The dimers are highly selective for AT rich duplexes and show high affinity (K(a) approximately 10(8)M(-1)) as determined by isothermal titration calorimetry.
