[Optical properties of DNA complexes with antitumor compounds of bivalent platinum].
The optical properties of the DNA complexes with the compounds of bivalent platinum were studied. The compounds differed by the nature of the anionic and neutral ligands and their spatial arrangement about the platinum atom. It was shown that the same as cis-[Pt (NH3)2Cl2] the platinum compounds with the biological activity, i.e. [Pt (en) Cl2], cis-[PtNH3 (Bz) Cl2] and cis-[Pt (NH3)2NO2Cl] induced at low values of r (a ratio of the number of the platinum moles added to the number of the DNA nucleotide moles in the solution) an increase in the amplitude of the positive band in the spectrum of the circular dichroism (CD) of the linear DNA and a marked decrease in the amplitude of the negative band in the spectrum of the CD of the liquid crystalline microphase of DNA formed in the presence of polyethyleneglycol. By the character of the action on the CD spectrum of the linear and condensed DNA [Pt (tetrameen)Cl2] which had no selective antimitotic effect might be referred to the above platinum compounds. Trans-[Pt (NH3)2NO2Cl], [PtNH3PyCl2], cis-[Pt (NH3)2(NO2)2] and [Pt (NH3)3Cl]Cl having no biological activity either induced only a decrease in the amplitude of the positive band in the CD spectrum of the linear DNA or had no effect on the CD spectrum. The effect of these compounds on the CD spectrum of the liquid crystalline microphase of DNA was slightly pronounced or not observed.
