Noncovalent complexes of diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphate with divalent metal ions, biogenic amines, proteins and poly(dT).
Diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate was shown by circular dichroic measurements to bind to metal ions (Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Zn2+), to biogenic amines (cadaverine, putrescine, spermidine, spermine), to L-arginine, to proteins (lysozyme, bovine serum albumin, Arg-rich histone f3, Lys-rich histone), and to poly(dT). Most cations effect destacking of the intramolecular adenine rings. Poly(dT) bound to the dinucleotide with a stoichiometry of 2 residues TMP per molecule of adenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate.
