The interaction of negatively charged liquid phosphatidylcholine/cardiolipin liposomes with water-soluble negatively charged DNA/cetylpyridinium bromide and DNA/poly(N-alkyl-4-vinylpyridinium bromide) complexes was studied. It is shown that the DNA/cetylpyridinium bromide complex while interacting with the liposomes is destroyed, so that the cetylpyridinium cation is incorporated into the liposomal membrane and DNA remains in the solution. The DNA/poly-(N-ethyl-4-vinylpyridinium bromide) complex does not interact at all with the liposomes. On the contrary, the complex of DNA with the poly(vinylpyridinium) cation carrying a small amount of N-cetyl groups is adsorbed on the membrane as a whole. The data obtained indicate that complexation of DNA with hydrophobized polycations can be used for enhancing DNA affinity to biological membranes.
研究了带负电荷的液态磷脂酰胆碱/心磷脂脂质体与水溶性带负电荷的DNA/十六烷基溴化吡啶和DNA/聚(N-烷基-4-乙烯基溴化吡啶)复合物之间的相互作用。结果表明,DNA/十六烷基溴化吡啶复合物与脂质体相互作用时会被破坏,使得十六烷基溴化吡啶阳离子被并入脂质体膜中,而DNA则留在溶液中。DNA/聚(N-乙基-4-乙烯基溴化吡啶)复合物根本不与脂质体相互作用。相反,带有少量N-十六烷基基团的聚(乙烯基吡啶)阳离子与DNA的复合物整体吸附在膜上。所得数据表明,DNA与疏水化聚阳离子的络合可用于增强DNA对生物膜的亲和力。
