“…3 These highly active species may further attack the DNA molecule, usually at thymine (T) or guanine (G) residues. 16,17 Combining the results of the electrochemical characterization of the DNA-Cu-DA system, we may as well explain why the DNA-Cu-DA system showed the fastest reaction rates among these three-component systems. The Cu ion may react with DNA to form a Cu-DNA complex.…”

“…Figure 6(a) and 6(b) showed the IR spectra of DNA-Co 2þ biomatrix (R ¼ 0:5) under 0% RH and 100% RH conditions, respectively. The absorption band at 1250-1500 cm À1 , which can be attributed to the nucleic acid base, 18 relatively increased with the humidity. This is due to the interaction of nucleic acid base with the hydrated-cobalt ion.…”

“…The increase of intensity based on the interaction with DNA and metal ion has been reported at the IR spectra in aqueous solution. 13,15,18 Additionally, the conformational change of DNA structure with the RH has been reported. [19][20][21] In this case, DNA structure changes from A-form to B-form with the increase of RH.…”

“…Met 2+ -induced DNA condensation in our experiments included both intra-and inter-molecular interactions. In the compact state DNA remained in the B-conformation limits [1,2]. A further study allowed us to suggest that the mechanism of DNA condensation under Met 2+ ion action is not completely electrostatic but involves a partial destabilisation of DNA due to Met 2+ ion interaction with DNA bases [3,4].…”
