中文摘要The noncovalent complexes of five cytotoxic protoberberine alkaloids, that is, berberine, palmatine, jatrorrhizine, coptisine, and berberrubine with several double-stranded oligodeoxynucleo tides were systematically investigated by using electrospray ionization mass (ESI-MS) and fluorescence spectrometric methods, with the aim of establishing the structure-activity relationships. ESI-MS spectrometric studies indicated that these five alkaloids showed both 1: 1 and 1:2 binding stoichiometries with d(AAGAATTCTT)(2), d(AAGGATCCTT)(2), and d(AAGCATGCTT)(2). Their relative binding affinities toward these three doublestranded DNA were semi-quantitatively evaluated by measuring the ratios of the complex signals ([ds+alkaloid-5H](4-)+[ds+2alkaloid-6H](4-)) to those of the duplexes ([ds-4H](4-)) and also by ESI-MS competitive binding experiments. These experiments established the relative binding affinities of five protoberberine alkaloids in the order of palmatine > jatrorrhizine > coptisine > berberine > berberrubine with d(AAGAATTCTT)(2), palmatine greater than or equal to coptisine greater than or equal to jatrorrhizine greater than or equal to berberine > berberrubine with d(AAGGATCCTT)(2) and palmatine > jatrorrhizine greater than or equal to coptisine > berberine > berberrubine with d(AAGCATGCTT)(2). Significantly, these alkaloids except berberrubine bound to d(AAGGATCCTT)(2) and d(AAGCATGCTT)(2) with the affinities comparable to Hoechst 33258, a typical DNA minor groove binder. The relative binding preferences of berberine, palmatine, and coptisine with these three double-stranded DNA were further quantitatively assessed by their association constants obtained from fluorescence titration experiments. The values revealed the order of relative binding affinities as berberine > coptisine > palmatine with d(AAGAATTCTT)(2) and coptisine > berberine > palmatine with d(AAGGATCCTT)(2) and d(AAGCATGCTT)(2). These results were not in full agreement with those obtained from ESI-MS experiments, maybe due to the different measuring solution conditions. The results from ESI-MS and fluorescence titration experiments indicated that the sequence selectivities of these five alkaloids were not significant and remarkable AT- or GC-rich DNA binding preferences were not obtained, in contrast to the report that berberine binds preferentially to AT-rich DNA. To provide further insight into the sequence selectivities, the association constants of berberine with d(AAGATATCTT)(2), 5'-AAGTAATCTT-3'/5'-AAGATTACTT-3', d(AAGGGCCCTT)(2), d(AAGGCGCCTT)(2), and 5'-AAGGCCGCTT-3'/5'-AAGCGGCCTT-3', that is double helical DNA from AT-rich to GC-rich sequences, were further measured by fluorescence titration methods. No significant differences in their association constants were observed, suggesting that berberine showed no remarkable sequence selectivities. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
