Nuclease digestion and mass spectrometric characterization of oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing 1,2-GpG, 1,2-ApG, and 1,3-GpXpG cisplatin intrastrand cross-links.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The primary mode of action for cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II), referred to as cisplatin, toward the treatment of solid malignancies is through formation of cross-links with DNA at purine sites, especially guanines.

Methods

We prepared oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODNs) containing a 1,2-GpG, 1,2-ApG, or 1,3-GpXpG cisplatin intrastrand cross-link and the corresponding ODNs modified with (15)N2-labeled cisplatin, and characterized these ODNs with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and tandem MS (MS/MS). We also employed LC-MS/MS to characterize the digestion products of these ODNs after treatment with a cocktail of 4 enzymes (nuclease P1, phosphodiesterases I and II, and alkaline phosphatase).

Results

1,2-GpG was released from the ODNs as a dinucleoside monophosphate or a dinucleotide. Analyses of the digestion products of ODNs containing a 1,2-GpG cross-link on the 5' or 3' terminus revealed that the dinucleotide carries a terminal 5' phosphate. On the other hand, digestion of the 1,3-GpXpG intrastrand cross-link yielded 3 dinucleoside products with 0, 1, or 2 phosphate groups.

Conclusion

The availability of the ODNs carrying the stable isotope-labeled lesions, MS/MS analyses of the cisplatin-modified ODNs, and the characterization of the enzymatic digestion products of these ODNs set the stage for the future LC-MS/MS quantification of the 1,2-GpG, 1,2-ApG, and 1,3-GpXpG lesions in cellular DNA.

Project description:The bifunctional binding of the anticancer drug cisplatin to two adjacent nucleobases in DNA is modeled using density functional theory. Previous experimental studies revealed that cisplatin binding to adjacent guanine and adenine is sensitive to nucleobase sequence. Whereas AG 1,2-intrastrand cross-links are commonly observed, the analogous GA adducts are not known. This study focuses on understanding this directional preference by constructing a full reaction profile using quantum chemical simulation methods. Monofunctional and bifunctional cisplatin adducts were generated, and the transition states that connect them were located for the dinucleotides d(pApG) and d(pGpA), assuming that initial platination takes place at the guanine site. Our computer simulations reveal a significant kinetic preference for formation of the AG over the GA adduct. The activation free energies of approximately 23 kcal/mol for AG and approximately 32 kcal/mol for GA suggest that bifunctional closure is approximately 6 orders of magnitude faster for AG than for GA. A strong hydrogen bond between one of the ammine ligands of cisplatin and the 5' phosphate group of the DNA backbone is responsible for the stabilization of the transition state that affords the AG adduct. This interaction is absent in the transition state that leads to the GA adduct because the right-handed helix of the DNA backbone places the phosphate out of reach for the ammine ligand. We found only an insignificant thermodynamic difference between AG and GA adducts and conclude that the preference of AG over GA binding is largely under kinetic control. The puckering of the deoxyribose ring plays an important role in determining the energetics of the bifunctional platination products. Whereas the 3'-nucleoside remains in the native C2'-endo/C3'-exo form of B-DNA, the deoxyribose of the 5'-nucleoside always adopts the C2'-exo/C3'-endo puckering in our simulations. A detailed analysis of the energies and structures of the bifunctional adducts revealed that the observed sugar puckering patterns are necessary for platinum to bind in a relaxed coordination geometry.
