摘要

This research is designed to further understand the physicochemical interaction between the novel drugEFZ, and its biological receptor DNA. The ultimate goal is to design drugs that interact more withDNA. Understanding the physicochemical properties of the drug as well as the mechanism by which itinteracts with DNA should ultimately enable the rational design of novel anti-cancer or anti-viraldrugs. Molecular modeling on the complex formed between EFZ and DNA presented this complex tobe fully capable of participating in the formation of a stable intercalation site. Furthermore, themolecular geometries of EFZ and DNA bases (Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine) wereoptimized with the aid of the B3LYP/6-31G* method. The properties of the isolated intercalator and itsstacking interactions with adeninethymine (AT) and guaninecytosine (GC) nucleic acid base pairswere studied with the DFTB method, an approximate version of the DFT method that was extended tocover the London dispersion energy. The B3LYP/6-31G* stabilization energies of theintercalatorbase pair complexes were found to be -5.55 kcal/mol and -7.52 kcal/mol for ATEFZand GCEFZ, respectively. It was concluded that dispersion energy and the electrostatic interactioncontributed to stability of the intercalatorDNA base pair complexes. Results from comparison of theDFTB method and HF method conclude close results and support each other.
