Interaction of metal ions with nucleic acids. Interaction of copper(II) with guanosine and its derivatives.
Interaction of copper(II) with guanosine, 2'-deoxyguanosine, 1-methylguanosine, 7-methylguanosine and GMP was studied withe use of spectroscopic and magneto-chemical methods. The main site of copper(II) binding in guanosine is nitrogen N-7; participation of N-1 is not excluded. The involvement of carbonyl oxygen in copper binding or copper chelation to N-7 and 0-6 is rather unlikely. A crystalline complex of copper(II) with GMP [Cu(C10H12O8N5P) .(H2O)3] was obtained, and it was demonstrated that copper(II) is bound with N-7 and the phosphate group.
