15N NMR chemical shift changes in the presence of Mg(H2O)62+, Zn2+, Cd2+, and Co(NH3)63+were used to probe the effect of flanking bases on metal binding sites in three different RNA motifs. We found that: for GC pairs, the presence of a flanking purine creates a site for the soft metals Zn2+and Cd2+only; a GG·UU motif selectively binds only Co(NH3)63+, while a UG·GU motif binds none of these metals; a 3′ guanosine flanking the adenosine of a sheared GA·AG pair creates an unusually strong binding site that precludes binding to the cross-strand stacked guanosines within the tandem pair.
