Effect of Copper(II) Ion Binding by Porin P1 Precursor Fragments from Fusobacterium nucleatum on DNA Degradation

Abstract: Fusobacterium nucleatum is one of the most notorious species involved in colorectal cancer. It was reported that numerous outer membrane proteins (OMP) are actively involved in carcinogenesis. In this paper, the structure and stability of certain complexes, as well as DNA cleavage and ROS generation by fragments of OMP, were investigated using experimental and theoretical methods. Mass spectrometry, potentiometry, UV-Vis, CD, EPR, gel electrophoresis and calculations at the density functional theory (DFT) leve… Show more

“…9 shows the competition for metal binding among different peptides constituting fragments of F. nucleatum outer-membrane proteins. The data for porin P1 precursor fragments, namely Ac-AKGHEHQLE-NH 2 and Ac-FGEHEHGRD-NH 2 , were already published 65 and are used herein only to prepare the competitive diagram of copper( ii ) speciation among peptides from F. nucleatum . It can be seen that complexes formed with the Ac-FGEHEHGRD-NH 2 peptide are the most abundant ones at pH 6.5.…”
