The concentration dependence of chemical shifts and nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) experiments are utilized to assign the adenine H2 protons within the minor groove for both free d (ATGCAT) 2 and the adduct. These studies demonstrate that one of the four adenine H2 protons is in close proximity to the bound anthramycin and this results in itsupfield shift of 0.3 ppm compared to the adenine H2 protons of the free duplex. Effects of the covalent attachment of anthramycin to the d (ATGCAT) 2 duplex result in an increased shielding of selected deoxyribose protons located within the minor groove of the adduct, as demonstrated by two-dimensional autocorrelated (COSY) NMR techniques. Interactions between the protons of the covalently attached anthramycin and the d-(ATGCAT) 2 duplex are determined by utilizing two-dimensional NOE (NOESY) techniques. Analysis of these data reveals NOE cross-peaks between the anthramycin methyl, H6, and H7 protons with specific deoxyoligonucleotide protons within the minor groove, thus allowing the orientation of the drugwithin the minor groove to be determined. Nonselective inversion recovery (7j) relaxation experiments are used to probe the structural and dynamic properties of the anthramycin-d (ATGCAT) 2 adduct. These data suggest that the binding of anthramycin alters the correlation time of the d (ATGCAT) 2 duplex and stabilizes both of the internal A* T base pairs with respect to solvent exchange. The solutionconformation of the an-thramycin-d (ATGCAT) 2 adduct, as deduced from the NMR data, is in agreement with model-building studies [Hurley, LH, & Petrusek, R. L.(1979) Nature (London) 282, 529-531; Petrusek, R. L., Anderson, G. L., Garner, T. F., Fannin, Q. L., Kaplan, D. J., Zimmer, S. G., & Hurley, LH (1981) Biochemistry 20, 1111-1119], e antitumor activity of anthramycin (Figure 1A) has been attributed to its ability to interact with DNA resulting in the inhibition of the biosynthesis of nucleic acids (Kohn et al., 1968; Stefanovic, 1968; Horwitz et al., 1971; Glaubiger et al., 1974). The exact nature of this interaction with DNA has been the subject of numerous studies over the past several years. From these studies, anthramycin has been shown to form a labile covalent attachment to DNA spanning approximately three base pairs (Glaubiger et al., 1974; Kohn & Spears, 1970; Kohn et al., 1974). The stabilityof this bond is dependent upon the maintenance of the secondary structure of the DNA and is lost upon denaturation of the DNA by heating, by enzymatic digestion, or by lowering the pH to< 7.0. Anthramycin is highly selective in binding to DNA, requiring fThis work was supported by National Cancer Institute Grants CA-35251 and CA-17865.
