Interaction of platinum compounds with short oligodeoxynucleotides containing guanine and cytosine.
The products resulting from reaction of cis-Pt(NH3)2Cl2 with d(CpCpGpG), d(GpCpG), d(pCpGpCpG), d(pGpCpGpC) and d(CpGpCpG) and from reaction of [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl with d(CpCpGpG) and d(GpCpG) have been characterized with the aid of proton NMR spectroscopy, circular dichroic spectroscopy and Pt analysis. The binding sites of the Pt compounds were determined by pH-dependent NMR spectroscopy. Binding of the two Pt compounds invariably occurs at the guanine N7 atoms. In all compounds containing [cis-Pt(NH3)2]2+ chelates are formed by coordination of platinum to two guanines of the same oligonucleotide. The resulting intrastrand-cross-linked oligonucleotides contain either d(GpG) . cisPt units, or d(GpCpG) . cisPt units. In the latter case the middle cytosine is not coordinated to platinum. As a result the conformational changes originating from these two chelates are different from each other. In the case of [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl as a starting product, two types of oligonucleotide adducts are formed, i.e. those with one Pt atom/molecule and those with two Pt atoms/molecule. The NMR spectra of the adducts containing only one Pt(dien)2+ show that only one adduct is formed, although two guanine bases are present. This indicates a preference for one of the N7 atoms in the molecule.
