A novel bis-phenanthridine triamine with pH controlled binding to nucleotides and nucleic acids

The new bis-phenanthridine triamine (3) is characterised by three pKa values: 3.65 ; 6.0 and >7.5. Significant difference in protonation state of 3 at pH = 5 (four positive charges) and at pH = 7 (less than two positive charges) accounts for strong dependence of 3/nucleotide binding constants on nucleotide charge under acidic conditions, whereas at neutral pH all 3/nucleotide complexes are of comparable stability. All experimental data point at intercalation as dominant binding mode of 3 to polynucleotides. However, there is no indication of bis-intercalation of the two phenanthridine subunits in binding to double stranded polynucleotides, the respective complexes being most likely mono-intercalative. Thermal stabilisation of calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) and poly A-poly U duplexes upon addition of 3 is significantly higher at pH = 5 than at neutral conditions. This is not the case with poly dA-poly dT, indicating that specific secondary structure of the latter, most likely the shape of the minor groove, plays a key role in complex stability. At pH = 5 3 acts as a fluorimetric probe for poly G (emission quenching) as opposed to other ss-polynucleotides (emission increase), while at neutral conditions this specificity is lost. One order of magnitude higher cytotoxicity of 3 compared to its "monomer" 4 can be accounted for by cooperative action of two phenanthridinium units and charged triamine linker. The results presented here are of interest to the development of e.g. sequence-selective cytostatic drugs, and in particular for the possibility to control the drug activity properties over binding to DNA and/or RNA by variation of the pH of its surrounding.
