A DNA enzyme with peroxidase activity is a G-quadruplex-based DNAzyme formed by hemin and G-quadruplex DNA. Activity of peroxide DNAzymes can be influenced by the structure of quadruplex DNA. In this investigation, the interaction of hemin with T30695 G-quadruplex DNA is evaluated. Molecular dynamic simulation indicates that the binding mode of hemin to G-quadruplex DNA is end-stacking, which is consistent with absorption spectroscopy. Based on fluorescence spectroscopy, hemin ejects thiazole orange from bases of four-strand DNA. Circular dichroism spectra showed that no alteration occurs in this type of DNA structure. Graphical Abstract Peroxidase DNAzyme is formed by hemin and G-quadruplex DNA.
一种具有过氧化物酶活性的DNA酶是由血红素和G-四链体DNA形成的基于G-四链体的DNA酶。过氧化物DNA酶的活性会受到四链体DNA结构的影响。在本研究中,评估了血红素与T30695 G-四链体DNA的相互作用。分子动力学模拟表明,血红素与G-四链体DNA的结合模式是末端堆积,这与吸收光谱一致。基于荧光光谱,血红素从四链DNA的碱基中逐出噻唑橙。圆二色光谱表明,这种类型的DNA结构没有发生改变。图形摘要:过氧化物酶DNA酶由血红素和G-四链体DNA形成。
