Modifications in the structure of a 260 bp DNA (hlyM) fragment from Escherichia coli caused by interaction with Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes were studied. Cisplatin and transplatin [cis- and trans-PtCl2(NH3)2 respectively], Pt2Cl2(Spym)4 (Spym = 2-mercaptopyrimidine anion), Pd-famotidine and Pt-famotidine were incubated with DNA for 24 h at 37 degrees C and then observed with an atomic force microscope. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) provides the opportunity for nanometer resolution in research on the interaction between nucleic acids and metal complexes. The complexes induced noticeable changes in DNA topography according to their different characteristics and structure. In the case of cisplatin a shortening in DNA strands was observed. Transplatin and Pt2Cl2(Spym)4 caused shortening and compaction, whilst an aggregation of two strands was observed for the Pt-famotidine compound but not for the Pd-famotidine compound or the metal-free famotidine.
研究了来自大肠杆菌的260 bp DNA(hlyM)片段与钯(II)和铂(II)配合物相互作用导致的结构变化。顺铂和反铂(分别为顺式和反式 - PtCl2(NH3)2)、Pt2Cl2(Spym)4(Spym = 2 - 巯基嘧啶阴离子)、钯 - 法莫替丁和铂 - 法莫替丁在37℃下与DNA孵育24小时,然后用原子力显微镜观察。原子力显微镜(AFM)为研究核酸与金属配合物之间的相互作用提供了纳米分辨率的机会。根据其不同的特性和结构,这些配合物在DNA拓扑结构上引起了明显变化。对于顺铂,观察到DNA链缩短。反铂和Pt2Cl2(Spym)4导致缩短和压缩,而对于铂 - 法莫替丁化合物观察到两条链聚集,而钯 - 法莫替丁化合物或无金属的法莫替丁则未观察到。
