DNA and RNA: NMR studies of conformations and dynamics in solution

Abstract: The early NMR research on nucleic acids was of a qualitative nature and was restricted to partial characterization of short oligonucleotides in aqueous solution. Major advances in magnet design, spectrometer electronics, pulse techniques, data analysis and computational capabilities coupled with the availability of pure and abundant supply of long oligonucleotides have extended these studies towards the determination of the 3-D structure of nucleic acids in solution.

“…Resonance Assignments a) Non-exchangeable DNA Protons-The sequential assignment for the 1,N 2 -εdG duplex was accomplished using standard protocols (40,41). An expanded plot of 1 H NOE sequential connectivities between the base protons (7.0-8.6 ppm) and the sugar H1′ and dC H5 protons (5.0-6.4 ppm) is plotted in Figure 1.…”

“…However, the spectrum of PdG opposite dC in duplex DNA sharpens considerably as pH is lowered (44). Likewise, when PdG is mismatched with dA in duplex DNA an ordered structure is stabilized at pH 5.8 (40,41). On the other hand, when PdG is mismatched with dG, an ordered structure is formed which is independent of pH (40).…”

“…The imino and amino protons have been assigned as described elsewhere. 34,35 The NOE patterns between different imino protons are identified in (a) and are labeled A to H, and (b) identifies NOEs between imino protons (10.5-14.0 ppm) and amino and non-exchangeable protons (3.5 ppm to 8.5 ppm). The NOE cross-peaks between DNA protons are labeled A to F, and NOE cross-peaks between aromatic BP protons and DNA protons are labeled 1-11.…”

“…We have constructed a second canonical coordinate, can2, which maximally separates the two clusters. can2 = -0.0605(δ C2′ + δ C3′ ) -0.0556 δ C4′ -0.0524 δ C5′ [4] This coordinate, it should be noted, is considerably different from that which we gave in our preliminary report (21). While the largest average difference in chemical shifts is at the C5′ position, the C5′ chemical shift also has considerable scatter within each group, and the average (C2′ + C3′) shift is actually a better discriminant than that of C5′.…”

“…Thus, the observed chemical shifts observed in the solid state correspond to specific sugar ring conformations, rather than to average values over the many conformations which exist in rapid equilibrium in solution (2). One approach to determining oligonucleotide and RNA structure in solution has been to measure the steadystate or transient nuclear overhauser enhancement between adjacent protons, either by one-dimensional (3) or two-dimensional methods (4). Such measurements are still the workhorses of most structural determinations.…”
