摘要

Four diphenylfuran derivatives possessing different dicationic terminal side chains were used to investigate sequence-specific binding to DNA and poisoning of human topoisomerase II. Footprinting experiments with a range of DNA substrates attest that all four drugs bind selectively to AT-rich sequences in DNA. However, the quantitative analysis of the footprinting profiles reveals significant differences in terms of AT-selectivity according to the nature of the basic side chains. Furimidazoline (DB60) shows a reduced capacity to interact selectively with A.T tetrads compared with furamidine (DB75) and the 3-pentyl-substituted diamidine analogue DB226. DB244, for which the two amidine ends are substituted with a cyclopentyl group, exhibits the most pronounced AT specificity. It binds tightly to sites composed of at least four adjacent AT base pairs, such as 5'-TAAT, AATT and TTTT. At low concentrations (< 2 microM) DB60 is also capable of forming stable complexes with AT sites but at higher concentrations the binding becomes totally non-specific due to additional intercalation of drug molecules into GC-rich sequences. Nevertheless, DB60 is the only drug is the series which stabilizes DNA-topoisomerase II covalent complexes. This compound effectively promotes DNA cleavage by topoisomerase II whereas DB75, DB226 and DB244 have practically no effect. The topoisomerase II poisoning activity of DB60 correlates with its ability to intercalate into GC sites in DNA whereas the three other diphenylfurans essentially behave as typical AT-selective minor groove binders. The study suggests that the antimicrobial activity of the diphenylfurans, which are active against the Pneumocystis carinii pathogen (PCP), depends essentially on their capacity to recognize AT-rich DNA sequences rather than their ability to interfere with topoisomerase II. In contrast, the cytotoxicity of drugs like DB60 would be connected with the formation of intercalation complexes and the stimulation of DNA cleavage by human topoisomerase II.
