The spermine conjugate of the cationic porphyrin ligand (1) selectively induced the B-Z transition of the [(dA-T)n]2 sequence at low salt concentrations. The [(dG-C)n]2 sequence was not transformed into the Z-form. The B-Z transition was induced via an intermediate DNA conformation, which was formed by the external binding and formation of an assembly of 1 onto B-DNA.
缩醛胺修饰的阳离子卟啉配体(1)能够在低盐浓度下选择性诱导 [(dA-T)n]2 序列发生 B-Z 转变,而 [(dG-C)n]2 序列则不能转化为 Z 型构象。B-Z 转变是通过一种中间的 DNA 构象诱导的,该构象是由 1 通过外部结合形成的组装体与 B-DNA 形成的。
