Interaction centres of pyrimidine nucleotides: cytidine-5'-diphosphate (CDP) and cytidine-5'-triphosphate (CTP) in their reactions with tetramines and Cu(II) ions.
The interactions between pyrimidine nucleotides: cytidine-5'-diphosphate (CDP) and cytidine-5'-triphosphate (CTP) and Cu(II) ions, spermine (Spm) and 1,11-diamino-4,8-diazaundecane (3,3,3-tet) have been studied. The composition and stability constants of the complexes formed have been determined by means of the potentiometric method, while the centres of interactions in the ligands have been identified by the spectral methods (UV-Vis, Ultraviolet and Visible spectroscopy; EPR, electron spin resonance; NMR). In the systems without metal, formation of the molecular complexes nucleotide-polyamine with the interaction centres at the endocyclic nitrogen atom of purine ring N3, the oxygen atoms of the phosphate group from the nucleotide and protonated nitrogen atoms of the polyamine have been detected. Significant differences have been found in the metallation between the systems with Spm and with 3,3,3-tet. In the systems with spermine, mainly protonated species are formed with the phosphate group of the nucleotide and deprotonated nitrogen atoms of the polyamine making the coordination centres, while the donor nitrogen atom of the nucleotide N3 is involved in the intramolecular interligand interactions, additionally stabilising the complex. In the systems with 3,3,3-tet, the MLL' type species are formed in which the oxygen atoms of the phosphate group and nitrogen atoms of the polyamine are involved in metallation, whereas the N3 atom from the pyrimidine ring of the nucleotide is located outside the inner coordination sphere of copper ion. The main centre of Cu(II) interaction in the nucleotide, both in the system with Spm and 3,3,3-tet is the phosphate group of the nucleotide.
