title: Study of the interaction of cis-dichloro-(1,2 diethyl-3-aminopyrrolidine)Pt(II) complex with poly(I), poly(C) and poly(I) x poly(C).
abstract: The interaction of cis-dichloro-(1,2 diethyl-3-aminopyrrolidine)platinum(II) (Ptpyrr) with the polynucleotides poly(I), poly(C) and poly(I) x poly(C) acids was studied by circular dichroism, molecular fluorescence and (1)H NMR spectroscopies. Multivariate Curve Resolution, a factor analysis method, was applied for the analysis and interpretation of spectroscopic data obtained in mole ratio and kinetics studies. This procedure allows the determination of the number of different interaction complexes present during the experiments and the resolution of both concentration profiles and pure spectra for all of them. Two different interaction complexes were observed at the experimental conditions studied. The first one, at low Ptpyrr:polynucleotide ratio (r(Ptpyrr:poly)) values, corresponds to the interaction of Ptpyrr with hypoxanthine bases in the poly(I) moiety. This interaction leads to the destabilization and dissociation of the double-stranded conformation. The second complex was observed at higher r(Ptpyrr:poly) values and corresponds to the interaction of Ptpyrr to cytosine bases in poly(C) moiety. The formation of both complexes showed that the interaction of Ptpyrr with hypoxanthine bases occurred at the first stages of the reaction and with cytosine bases at longer reaction times. The results obtained show the utility of the Multivariate Curve Resolution approach for the analysis of data obtained by monitoring spectroscopically the interaction equilibria of platinum compounds with nucleic acids.
