Aminoglycosides have been shown to target A-form nucleic acids. Our work has previously shown that neomycin (and other aminoglycosides) bind and stabilize DNA/RNA triplexes and other A-form nucleic acids. We report herein the unexpected B-form duplex stabilization shown by aminoglycoside dimers (neomycin-neomycin and neomycin-tobramycin). The dimers are highly selective for AT rich duplexes and show high affinity (K(a) approximately 10(8)M(-1)) as determined by isothermal titration calorimetry.
氨基糖苷类已被证明可作用于A-型核酸。我们之前的工作表明,新霉素(以及其他氨基糖苷类)能结合并稳定DNA/RNA三链体和其他A-型核酸。我们在此报告氨基糖苷二聚体(新霉素-新霉素和新霉素-妥布霉素)所表现出的意外的B-型双链稳定作用。通过等温滴定量热法测定,这些二聚体对富含AT的双链具有高度选择性,并表现出高亲和力(K(a)约为10(8)M(-1))。
