[Interaction of carminomycin with DNA according to data of laser polarized fluorescence].
Anti-tumour antibiotic carminomycin interaction with chicken erythrocyte DNA is studied in aqueous-salt solutions by the laser polarized fluorescence method. Fluorescence quenches almost equally effectively during the antibiotic absorption on native (nDNA) and denatured (dDNA) DNAs, but the polarization degree of residual fluorescence differs about two times. Carminomycin binding to dDNA is characterized by one interaction type with a large density of occupancy sites - one antibiotic molecule per base pair. Carminomycin forms two types of complexes with nDNA, differing significantly with binding constants. Strong binding, intercalation, is saturated at one carminomycin molecule per 3 base pairs independently on the solution ionic strength. The weaker, external, interaction is characterized by the binding constant being by two orders of magnitude lower than that for intercalation, and the external interaction contribution is negligible.
