摘要

Chromomycin A3 (CHR), an anticancer antibiotic, blocks macromolecular synthesis via reversible interaction with DNA only in the presence of divalent cations like Mg2+. In the absence of DNA, the antibiotic forms a dimer: Mg2+ complex [(CHR)2Mg2+]. It is the DNA-binding ligand. The antibiotic has potential reactive centers that could interact with GSH, the most abundant non-protein thiol in eukaryotic cells and a putative cofactor involved in the activation of many antibiotics in vivo. To understand the mode of action of CHR in vivo, we studied the interactions of CHR and the (CHR)2Mg2+ complex with GSH and the association of the resultant complexes with DNA by means of absorption, fluorescence, and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The novel finding was that GSH interacts non-covalently with CHR without a chemical modification of the antibiotic. The interaction was reversible in nature. The results are reported in two parts: the interaction of CHR with GSH in the absence and presence of Mg2+, and the effect of this interaction on the DNA-binding properties of the antibiotic. CHR forms a single type of complex with GSH. In contrast, (CHR)2Mg2+ forms two different types of complexes with GSH: a low GSH complex at approximately 12 mM GSH and a high GSH complex at > or = 16 mM GSH. Binding and thermodynamic parameters for the reversible association of the complexes with DNA demonstrated that they bind differently to the same DNA. The thermodynamic parameters indicate that the presence of GSH alters the mode of binding of the (CHR)2Mg2+ complex with DNA. The (CHR)2Mg2+ complex binds to DNA via an entropy-driven process, whereas in the presence of GSH the association is enthalpy-driven. The significance of these results in the understanding of the molecular basis of action of the antibiotic is discussed.
