title: Interaction of cis-[Pt(NH3)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 with ribose deoxyribose diguanosine phosphates.
abstract: The three diguanosine phosphates GpG (4 X 10(-4) M), d(GpG) (10(-5) M), and d(pGpG) (10(-5) M) have been reacted with cis-[Pt(NH3)2(H2O)2](NO3)2 (1 Pt/dinucleotide) in water at pH 5.5 and 37 degrees C. In each case a single product is formed. The three complexes have been characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and circular dichroism (CD) analyses. They are N(7)-N(7) chelates of the metal with an anti-anti configuration of the bases. They present a conformational change upon deprotonation of guanine N(1)H whose pKa is ca. 8.7 (D2O). Their CD spectra, compared to those of the free dinucleotides, exhibit an increase of ellipticity in the 275-nm region, which can be qualitatively related to the characteristic increase reported for platinated DNA and poly(dG) . poly(dC). These results are in favor of the hypothesis of intrastrand cross-linking of adjacent guanines, by the cis-PtII(NH3)2 moiety, after a local denaturation of DNA.
