文摘
Molecular modeling and extensive experimental studies are used to study DNA distortions induced by binding platinum(II)-containing fragments derived from cisplatin and a new class of photoactive platinum anticancer drugs. The major photoproduct of the novel platinum(IV) prodrug trans,trans,trans-[Pt(N3)2(OH)2(py)2] (1) contains the trans-{Pt(py)2}2+ moiety. Using a tailored DNA sequence, experimental studies establish the possibility of interstrand binding of trans-{Pt(py)2}2+ (P) to guanine N7 positions on each DNA strand. Ligand field molecular mechanics (LFMM) parameters for Pt鈥揼uanine interactions are then derived and validated against a range of experimental structures from the Cambridge Structural Database, published quantum mechanics (QM)/molecular mechanics (MM) structures of model Pt鈥揇NA systems and additional density-functional theory (DFT) studies. Ligand field molecular dynamics (LFMD) simulation protocols are developed and validated using experimentally characterized bifunctional DNA adducts involving both an intra- and an interstrand cross-link of cisplatin. We then turn to the interaction of P with the DNA duplex dodecamer, d(5鈥?C1C2T3C4T5C6G7T8C9T10C11C12-3鈥?路d(5鈥?G13G14A15G16A17C18G19A20G21A22G23G24-3鈥? which is known to form a monofunctional adduct with cis-{Pt(NH3)2(py)}. P coordinated to G7 and G19 is simulated giving a predicted bend toward the minor groove. This is widened at one end of the platinated site and deepened at the opposite end, while the P鈥揇NA complex exhibits a global bend of 67掳 and an unwinding of 20掳. Such cross-links offer possibilities for specific protein鈥揇NA interactions and suggest possible mechanisms to explain the high potency of this photoactivated complex.
