Abstract

Bases in the opposite strands of DNA cross-linked by clinically ineffective trans-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2]) have been identified by means of three experimental approaches. These include HPLC analysis of enzymatic digests of synthetic oligonucleotide duplexes containing the interstrand cross-link, footprinting experiments on the interstrand cross-linked oligonucleotide duplexes, and termination of the duplex transcription on trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2]-treated fragments of plasmid DNA. The results reveal that deoxyguanine and complementary deoxycytosine residues are preferential binding sites of trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] in the interstrand adducts. The interstrand cross-linking reaction was studied by means of gel electrophoresis for the cis and trans isomers. The rate of formation of interstrand cross-links was lower for the trans isomer; however, trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] formed about twice the amount of interstrand cross-links as compared with the cis isomer after 48 hr. The present results are suggested to be relevant to differences in clinical activity of the two platinum(II) isomers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
