Abstract:
:Structural and dynamic properties of the self-complementary decadeoxyribonucleotide d(CGCAATTGCG)2 and the interaction between a prototype lexitropsin, or information-reading oligopeptide, and the decadeoxyribonucleotide are deduced by using high-resolution 1H NMR techniques. The nonexchangeable and imino proton resonances of d(CGCAATTGCG)2 have been completely assigned by two-dimensional NMR studies. The decadeoxyribonucleotide exists as a right-handed B-DNA. In the 1H NMR spectrum of the 1:1 complex, the selective chemical shifts and removal of degeneracy of AH2(4), AH2(5), T-CH3(6), and T-CH3(7) due to the anisotropy effects of the heterocyclic moieties of the ligand, and with lesser effects at the flanking base sites C(3) and G(8), locate the drug centrally in the decadeoxyribonucleotide. This conclusion is supported by plots of individual chemical shift changes across the decadeoxyribonucleotide. Similarly, imino protons IV and V experience larger shifts and II and III smaller shifts in accord with this conclusion while drug complexation permits the detection of imino proton I. Strong nuclear Overhauser effects (NOEs) between pyrrole H5 and AH2(5), and weaker NOEs to AH1'(5), TH3'(6), and AH2'(5), firmly locate the ligand in the minor groove. Intraligand NOEs between the adjacent heterocyclic moieties indicate that the lexitropsin is subject to propeller twisting about the N6-C9 bond in both the bound and free forms. Nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) and correlated spectroscopy (COSY) experiments also indicate that the removal of degeneracy of the C16 methylene protons upon complexation may arise from restricted rotation about the C15-N9, C15-C16, and C16-C17 bonds. Specific hydrogen bonds between amide NH groups on the concave face of the ligand (N4H, N6H, N9H) and adenine N3 or thymine O2 on the floor of the minor groove are in accord with displacement of the hydration shell by the drug. NOE measurements on the decadeoxyribonucleotide in the 1:1 complex confirm it exists as a right-handed helix and belongs to the B family. Exchange NMR effects permit an estimate of a rate of approximately equal to 44 s-1 for the two-site exchange of the lexitropsin between two equivalent sites on the decamer with delta G++ approximately equal to 70 +/- 5 kJ mol-1 at 294 K. Alternative mechanisms for this exchange process are considered.
