Influence of benzo[a]pyrenediol epoxide chirality on solution conformations of DNA covalent adducts: the (-)-trans-anti-[BP]G.cntdot.C adduct structure and comparison with the (+)-trans-anti[BP]G.cntdot.C enantiomer

Abstract: Benzo[a]pyrene (BP) is an environmental genotoxin, which, following metabolic activation to 7,8-diol 9,10-epoxide (BPDE) derivatives, forms covalent adducts with cellular DNA. A major fraction of adducts are derived from the binding of N2 of guanine to the C10 position of BPDE. The mutagenic and carcinogenic potentials of these adducts are strongly dependent on the chirality at the four asymmetric benzylic carbon atoms. We report below on the combined NMR-energy minimization refinement characterization of the … Show more

“…Such upfield imino proton shifts (b) are characteristic of intercalation of the pyrenyl ring into the helix in the meC- [BP]G-C (b) sequence context. The lack of upfield-shifted imino protons in the unmethylated C- [BP]G-C sequence context (a) is in agreement with the previous results and minor groove structural assignment of the same 10R (−)-trans-anti- [BP]G adduct in the same duplex reported by de los Santos et al 29 However, the presence of the 5-methyl group at the C flanking the same adduct on the 5′-side is unusual and resembles the imino spectrum of the stereoisomeric 10R (+)-cis-adduct in the same unmethylated 11-mer duplex that has a base-displaced intercalated conformation. 30 Expanded regions of the NOESY contour plot (200 ms mixing time) for the 10R (−)-transanti- [BP]G adduct in the meC- [BP]G-C sequence context at the duplex level in H 2 O buffer at 0 °C are shown in Figure 3.…”

“…The imino proton assignments are shown in (b) and were determined as described for the same sequence context in earlier publications. [28][29][30][31]33 The partially resolved imino protons resonating between 12.5 ppm and 14 ppm are characteristic of Watson-Crick basepairing in these 11-mer duplexes. There are dramatic differences in the imino proton spectra on proceeding from the C- [BP]G-C (a) to the meC- [BP]G-C (b) sequence context.…”
