چکیده

We report direct (23)Na NMR observation for the presence of mixed cations (Na(+)/K(+), Na(+)/Rb(+), Na(+)/Sr(2+)) inside the G-quadruplex channel formed by the self-association of guanosine 5'-monophosphate at pH 8.

Direct NMR detection of the "invisible" alkali metal cations tightly bound to G-quadruplex structures.

We report the first direct solution NMR detection of the alkali metal cations (23Na+, 39K+, and 87Rb+) residing inside G-quadruplex channel structures formed by guanosine 5'-monophosphate and a DNA oligomer, d(TG4T). In solution, these channel alkali metal cations are tightly bound to the G-quadruplex structure and have been considered to be "invisible" to NMR spectroscopy for many years. Our f...

Direct NMR detection of alkali metal ions bound to G-quadruplex DNA.

We describe a general multinuclear (1H, 23Na, 87Rb) NMR approach for direct detection of alkali metal ions bound to G-quadruplex DNA. This study is motivated by our recent discovery that alkali metal ions (Na+, K+, Rb+) tightly bound to G-quadruplex DNA are actually "NMR visible" in solution (Wong, A.; Ida, R.; Wu, G. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 2005, 337, 363). Here solution and solid-state...

The sodium ions inside a lipophilic G-quadruplex channel as probed by solid-state (23)Na NMR.

We report solid-state 23Na NMR and X-ray crystallographic results for a self-assembled G-quadruplex channel formed by a guanine nucleoside, 5'-tert-butyl-dimethylsilyl-2',3'-O-isopropylidene guanosine (G 1). The study provides an unambiguous 23Na NMR identification for the Na+ ions inside a lipophilic G-quadruplex channel. The crystalline nature of the sample yields a remarkably high resolution...

Direct detection of potassium cations bound to G-quadruplex structures by solid-state 39K NMR at 19.6 T.

We report solid-state 39K NMR detection of the K+ ions bound to three G-quadruplex structures formed by self-assembly of 5'-tert-butyl-dimethylsilyl-2',3'-O-isopropylidene guanosine, guanosine, and guanosine 5'-monophosphate. The 39K NMR spectra clearly show different spectral signatures for K+ ions inside the G-quadruplex channel and for K+ ions bound to the phosphate groups. Solid-state 39K N...

Cation exchange in lipophilic G-quadruplexes: not all ion binding sites are equal.

Lipophilic guanosine derivatives that form G-quadruplexes are promising building blocks for ionophores and ion channels. Herein, cation exchange between solvated cations (K+ and NH4+) and bound cations in the G-quadruplex [G1]16.4Na+.4DNP- was studied by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and solution 1H, 15N NMR spectroscopy. The ESI-MS and 1H NMR data provided evidence for the formatio...
