Department of Chemistry, Tennessee State University, Nashville, Tennessee 37203 Received December 11, 1986; Revised Manuscript Received March 11, 1987 abstract: Evidence from absorbance, fluorescence, and circular dichroism (CD) measurements strongly suggests that adduct conformations at the binding sites are grossly different before and after thermal denaturation of (+)-í/mr-7, 8-dihydroxy-aŦíz-9, 10-epoxy-7, 8, 9, 10-tetrahydrobenzo [a] pyrene [(+)-aŦiz'-BPDE] modified DNAs. This conclusion is reached through the following observations:(1) upon melting and cooling, the (+)-aniz-BPDE-modified DNA exhibitspronounced hypochromic effects with concomitantspectral red shifts for the pyrenyl absorbance;(2) the pyrenyl CD spectrum reverses sign upon thermal denaturationrenaturation;(3) thefluorescence emission spectra resultingfrom excitationsat 353 nm (10 nm to the red of hydrolyzed and unbound'-BPDE) exhibit enhanced intensities and spectral red shifts for the thermally denatured and cooled adducts; and (4) in contrast to the absence of a shoulder prior to melting, the postmelt adducts exhibit a prominent 355-nm maximum (evidence of stacking interactions) in the excitation spectrum when 384-387-nm emission is monitored. Studies with synthetic polynucleotides further reveal that (+)-aniz'-BPDE-modified poly (dG)-poly (dC) exhibits thegreatest nonreversible renaturation at the binding sites, possibly as a consequence of pyrenyl self-stacking. This, coupled with the previous findingsthat this polymer suffers the most extensive (+)-aniz'-BPDE modification, appears to suggest that (dG)„-(dC)„regions may be responsible for such observed effects in native DNA.
