Dynemicin A is a potent antibacterial and antitumor antibiotic having a striking hybrid structure of both anthraquinone as a DNA intercalator and diynene as a DNA strand breaker. We have investigated the DNA-binding property and cytotoxicity of non-diynene class of dynemicins (H, L, M, O and Q) and several related synthetic tri- and pentacyclic aza-anthraquinones 1a-3a (R = H) and 1b-3b (R = CH3). Among them, dynemicin H, L, M, O, Q, 1a, 1b and 2b exhibited DNA-binding property. All non-diynene class of dynemicins investigated exhibited intercalative binding activity, however, synthetic aza-anthraquinones 1a-3a did not show such ability. Dynemicin H, Q, 2a, 2b and 3b showed cytotoxicity against HL-60 and K-562 cell lines.
力达霉素A是一种强效抗菌和抗肿瘤抗生素,具有独特的杂合结构,它同时含有作为DNA嵌入剂的蒽醌和作为DNA链断裂剂的二炔结构。我们研究了非二炔类力达霉素(H、L、M、O和Q)以及几种相关的合成三环和五环氮杂蒽醌1a - 3a(R = H)和1b - 3b(R = CH3)的DNA结合特性和细胞毒性。其中,力达霉素H、L、M、O、Q、1a、1b和2b表现出DNA结合特性。所有研究的非二炔类力达霉素均表现出嵌入结合活性,然而,合成氮杂蒽醌1a - 3a却没有这种能力。力达霉素H、Q、2a、2b和3b对HL - 60和K - 562细胞系表现出细胞毒性。
