Batch calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), UV/vis [visible] absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and circular dichroism (CD), were used to detect, monitor and thermodynamically characterize the binding of daunomycin, dipyrandenium, dipyrandium and netropsin to poly d(AT) and actinomycin D to salomn testes (ST) DNA. All the poly d(AT) binding studies were done at 25.degree. C while actinomycin binding to ST DNA was performed at 1.degree. C to enhance drug solubility. These thermodyamic parameters are interpreted in terms of specific interactions that were proposed as part of models for the binding of each drug. Temperature-dependent UV absorption spectroscopy and DSC were used to characterize the influence of each of these drugs on the thermally-induced melting behavior of the host DNA. At saturation, drug binding increases the thermal stability of poly d(AT) in this order: netropsin > daunomycin > dipyrandium > dipyrandenium. Below saturation, drug binding to poly d(AT) induces biphasic melting behavior in which the thermal resolution of the 2 subtransitions (domains) varies from drug to drug. The higher the binding constant for a drug the more it increases the thermal stability of the duplex and the more it thermally resolves the 2 drug-induced domains. A comparison of the van''t Hoff and the calorimetric transition enthalpies reveals that each drug has a different effect on the cooperativity of the duplex to single strand transition of poly d(AT). Drugs which bind by modes which penetrate the helix (e.g. daunomycin and dipyrandium) significantly reduce the cooperativity of duplex melting. Dipyrandenium, which outside binds and induces an alternating helix structure actually increases the cooperativity of duplex melting.
