DNA cleavage reaction of antitumour antibiotic, kapurimycin A3, with deoxytetranucleotide d(CGCG)2
摘要:
Kapurimycin A3 (kap A3, 1), an antitumour antibiotic, alkylates N7 of guanine2 (G2) and G4 of d(C1G2C3G4)2 to produce their covalent adducts 2 (64 %) and 3 (7.0 %), respectively. Heating at 90-degrees-C for 5 min degraded both adducts to kap A3 - G adduct (5) with the concurrent release of their respective abasic-site containing oligomers 4 and 6.
