By conjugating pyrrole (Py)/imidazole (Im) hairpin polyamides with CBI, a stable alkylating moiety, we have developed a new type of DNA-sequence-specific alkylating agent. The sequence specificity and alkylation efficiency of the CBI conjugates were analyzed with high-resolution denaturing gel electrophoresis using linear 450- and 1000-bp DNA. The results demonstrate that CBI conjugates selectively alkylate adenine in specific sequences, whereas the previous type of alkylating polyamide, which contains segment A of DU-86, alkylates both adenine and guanine.
通过将吡咯（Py）/咪唑（Im）发夹型聚酰胺与稳定的烷基化部分CBI共轭，我们开发了一种新型的DNA序列特异性烷基化剂。使用线性450和1000碱基对的DNA，通过高分辨率变性凝胶电泳分析了CBI共轭物的序列特异性和烷基化效率。结果表明，CBI共轭物在特定序列中选择性地使腺嘌呤烷基化，而先前类型的烷基化聚酰胺（其包含DU-86的A片段）则使腺嘌呤和鸟嘌呤都烷基化。
