The nucleotide binding ability of the novel anthracycline drug, 3-fluoro-4-demethoxydaunomycin, has been studied by two dimensional 1H NMR correlated spectroscopy (COSY). In the COSY spectrum of the nucleotide mini-helix d(CTGCAG)2 cross-peaks are observed from the spin-coupled H6 and H5 protons of the cytidine bases. Additional cytidine H6/H5 cross-peaks are observed in the COSY spectrum of the anthracycline-d(CTGCAG)2 complex. These additional cytidine cross-peaks enable the identification of the anthracycline binding sites and the determination of the relative kinetic stability of the bound drug at each binding site.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007364 Intercalating Agents Agents that are capable of inserting themselves between the successive bases in DNA, thus kinking, uncoiling or otherwise deforming it and therefore preventing its proper functioning. They are used in the study of DNA.

D009682 Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Spectroscopic method of measuring the magnetic moment of elementary particles such as atomic nuclei, protons or electrons. It is employed in clinical applications such as NMR Tomography (MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING).

D009838 Oligodeoxyribonucleotides A group of deoxyribonucleotides (up to 12) in which the phosphate residues of each deoxyribonucleotide act as bridges in forming diester linkages between the deoxyribose moieties. Oligodeoxynucleotide,Oligodeoxyribonucleotide,Oligodeoxynucleotides
D003562 Cytidine A pyrimidine nucleoside that is composed of the base CYTOSINE linked to the five-carbon sugar D-RIBOSE. Cytosine Ribonucleoside,Cytosine Riboside,Ribonucleoside, Cytosine,Riboside, Cytosine
D003630 Daunorubicin A very toxic anthracycline aminoglycoside antineoplastic isolated from Streptomyces peucetius and others, used in treatment of LEUKEMIA and other NEOPLASMS. Daunomycin,Rubidomycin,Rubomycin,Cerubidine,Dauno-Rubidomycine,Daunoblastin,Daunoblastine,Daunorubicin Hydrochloride,NSC-82151,Dauno Rubidomycine,Hydrochloride, Daunorubicin,NSC 82151,NSC82151
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
