摘要
Distamycin A is a well known polyamide antibiotic that can bind in the minor groove of duplex DNA primarily at AT-rich sequences both as a monomer or as a side-by-side antiparallel dimer. The association phase of the distamycin binding reaction has not been studied in either of its binding modes, because of the lack of an adequate UV or CD signal at the low concentrations needed to monitor the fast bimolecular reaction. We report a significant increase in fluorescence amplitude, accompanied by a small red shift, on binding distamycin to its specific target sites. This signal can be used to monitor drug binding in steady-state and time-resolved processes. Distamycin shows extremely fast association with the 1:1 binding site, with a bimolecular rate of 7 x 10(7) M-1.s(-1) and also fairly rapid dissociation (approximate to 3 s(-1)). When DNA is in excess, there is a slow component in the association reaction whose rate decreases strongly with increasing DNA concentration. Binding of the drug to the 2:1 site occurs in two distinct steps: fast, sequential binding of each drug molecule to the DNA with a bimolecular rate comparable to that at the 1:1 site, followed by a slow (approximate to 4 S-1) equilibration to the final population. Dissociation from the 2:1 site is approximate to 40-fold slower than from the 1:1 site. This study provides the groundwork for analysis of the binding kinetics of longer polyamides and covalently linked polyamides that have recently been shown to inhibit transcription in vivo.
