19F NMR spectroscopy has been used to study the binding of the fluorinated anthracycline 3-fluoro-4-demethoxydaunomycin with the hexanucleotide d(TCCGGA)2. In the spectrum of the 1:1 anthracycline-d(TCCGGA)2 complex four resonances of approximately equal intensity were observed. This indicated that 4-demethoxydaunomycin intercalated at all possible sites with similar affinity. This suggests that the specific high affinity binding sites that are observed in anthracycline-DNA footprinting experiments are strongly regulated by the local DNA conformation.
19F核磁共振光谱已被用于研究氟化蒽环类药物3-氟-4-去甲氧基柔红霉素与六核苷酸d(TCCGGA)2的结合。在1:1蒽环类药物-d(TCCGGA)2复合物的光谱中,观察到四个强度近似相等的共振峰。这表明4-去甲氧基柔红霉素以相似的亲和力插入到所有可能的位点。这表明在蒽环类药物-DNA足迹实验中观察到的特定高亲和力结合位点受到局部DNA构象的强烈调控。
