| Abstract | Rigid 7H-pyrido[4,3-c]carbazole dimers, such as Ditercalinium, are DNA bisintercalators that display high DNA affinity and strong antitumor properties. This activity appears crucially dependent on the geometry of their complexes with DNA. Therefore, structures of the complexes formed by the self-complementary tetranucleotide d(CpGpCpG) with Ditercalinium and with a related monomer were investigated in 0.1 M [2H]acetate buffer (pH 5.5) by using 400-MHz 1H NMR. In both cases, d(CpGpCpG) retained a right-handed duplex structure as shown by exchangeable-proton analysis and intramolecular nuclear Overhauser effect measurements. According to the large upfield shifts measured on the base protons (including the imino proton) and on the aromatic protons of the pyridocarbazole rings, the monomer appears to monointercalate and the dimer to bisintercalate into the tetranucleotide duplex. Ditercalinium dissociates from its complex about 100-1000 times slower than does the monomer. The negative intermolecular nuclear Overhauser effects observed on protons corresponding to the convex edge of the pyridocarbazole rings when the sugar protons are saturated suggest that both ligands intercalate with their chain oriented to the wide groove side of the helix, a situation mimicking that encountered with repressors. Antitumor activity of 7H-pyridocarbazole derivatives is discussed in terms of geometry of the intercalated complexes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
