摘要

The experimental phase determination of crystal structures of nucleic acids andnucleic acid-ligand complexes would benefit from a facile method. Even fordouble-stranded DNA, software-generated models are generally insufficientlyaccurate to serve as molecular replacement search models, necessitatingexperimental phasing. Here, it is demonstrated that Zn~2+ ions coordinated tothe N7 atom of guanine bases generate sufficient anomalous signal for single-wavelength anomalous diffraction (SAD) phasing of DNA crystal structures.Using zinc SAD, three crystal structures of double-stranded DNA oligomers,5'-AGGGATCCCT-3', 5'-GGGATCCC-3' and 5'-GAGGCCTC-3', were deter-mined. By determining the crystal structure of one of these oligomers,GAGGCCTC, in the presence of Mg~2+ instead of Zn~2+, it was demonstratedthat Zn~2+ is not structurally perturbing. These structures allowed the analysis ofstructural changes in the DNA on the binding of analogues of the naturalproduct mithramycin to two of these oligomers, AGGGATCCCT andGAGGCCTC. Zinc SAD may become a routine approach for determiningthe crystal structures of nucleic acids and their complexes with small molecules.
