Generation and Characterization of a DNA-GCN4 Oligonucleotide-Peptide Conjugate: The Impact DNA/Protein Interactions on the Sensitization of DNA
PublicationRadiotherapy, the most common therapy for the treatment of solid tumors, exerts its effects by inducing DNA damage. To fully understand the extent and nature of this damage, DNA models that mimic the in vivo situation should be utilized. In a cellular context, genomic DNA constantly interacts with proteins and these interactions could influence both the primary radical processes (triggered by ionizing radiation) and secondary reactions,...

Interactions of antitumor triazoloacridinones with DNA
PublicationW niniejszej pracy zbadano oddziaływanie sześciu wybranych pochodnych triazoloakrydonu z DNA. Analiza wiskozymetryczna pokazała, że związki te interkalują do DNA. Jednocześnie dalsze badania wykazały, że proces interkalacji nie jest istotny aktywności cytotoksycznej tej grupy związków. Badania z wykorzystaniem fibroblastów dowiodły, że jedna z pochodnych triazoloakrydonu, związek C-1305, po uprzedniej metabolicznej aktywacji indukuje...

Thermodynamics aspects of interactions between acridine derivatives and DNA
PublicationDNA is a molecular target for many anticancer and antiviral drugs. Therefore, a clear understanding of the interaction of small molecules with DNA is important in the rational design of ligands that can bind to DNA with high affinity and selectivity. There are several methods to investigate interactions between drug and DNA. Some of them measure changing into DNA structures, such as lengthening and untwisting of helix of DNA. Other...

Raman spectroscopic study of Ni2+-DNA interactions in aqueous systems
PublicationMetodą ramanowskich widm różnicowych określono sposób oddziaływania jonu Ni2+ z DNA(CT) w układach wodnych. Kation Ni(II) koordynuje w pozycjach N7 guaniny (G) i adeniny (A) w powtarzających się sekwencjach GG, AA i GA cząsteczki DNA. Jednocześnie Ni2+ oddziałuje zewnątrz sferowo poprzez cząsteczki wody z grupami fosforanowymi DNA.

Taq DNA polymerase fused with DNA binding protein with increased resistance to inhibitors from clinical samples
PublicationNowadays PCR method is commonly used in molecular diagnostic. However, in many cases PCR is limited, by the presence of inhibitory substances in biological, soil or food samples Efficiency and fidelity of amplification is strongly connected with DNA polymerase and reaction conditions. To meet the requirements of modern diagnostic methods it is essential to seeking for new DNA polymerases with better properties useful in these field....

How water mediates the long-range interactions between remote protein molecules
PublicationThe high crowding of macromolecules in the cytoplasm affects the processes that occur inside a living cell. It can, for example, promote the forming of various loosely connected structures of proteins. It also means that bulk water is, essentially, not present there. The relatively thin layer of solvent that separates macromolecules may be able to participate in the long-range interactions between them and make them respond to...

Fusion of Taq DNA polymerase with single-stranded DNA binding-like protein of Nanoarchaeum equitans—Expression and characterization
PublicationDNA polymerases are present in all organisms and are important enzymes that synthesise DNA molecules. They are used in various fields of science, predominantly as essential components for in vitro DNA syntheses, known as PCR. Modern diagnostics, molecular biology and genetic engineering need DNA polymerases which demonstrate improved performance. This study was aimed at obtaining a new NeqSSB-TaqS fusion DNA polymerase from the...

Molecular basis and quantitative assessment of TRF1 and TRF2 protein interactions with TIN2 and Apollo peptides
PublicationShelterin is a six-protein complex (TRF1, TRF2, POT1, RAP1, TIN2, and TPP1) that also functions in smaller subsets in regulation and protection of human telomeres. Two closely related proteins, TRF1 and TRF2, make high-affinity contact directly with double-stranded telomeric DNA and serve as a molecular platform. Protein TIN2 binds to TRF1 and TRF2 dimer-forming domains, whereas Apollo makes interaction only with TRF2. To elucidate...

A Colorimetric Microplate Assay for DNA-Binding Activity of His-Tagged MutS Protein
PublicationA simple microplate method was designed for rapid testing DNA-binding activity of proteins. The principle of the assay involves binding of tested DNA by his-tagged protein immobilized on a nickel-coated ELISA plate, following colorimetric detection of biotinylated DNA with avidin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. The method was used to compare DNA mismatch binding activities of MutS proteins from three bacterial species. The...

Methods for Elucidation of DNA-Anticancer Drug Interactions and Their Applications in the Development of New Drugs
PublicationDNA damaging agents including anthracyclines, camptothecins and platinum drugs are among most frequently used drugs in the chemotherapeutic routine. Due to their relatively low selectivity for cancer cells, administration is associated with adverse side effects, whereas the inherent genotoxicity of these drugs is associated with risk of developing secondary cancers. Development of new drugs, which could be spared of these drawbacks...

A Data Driven Model for Predicting RNA-Protein Interactions based on Gradient Boosting Machine
PublicationRNA protein interactions (RPI) play a pivotal role in the regulation of various biological processes. Experimental validation of RPI has been time-consuming, paving the way for computational prediction methods. The major limiting factor of these methods has been the accuracy and confidence of the predictions, and our in-house experiments show that they fail to accurately predict RPI involving short RNA sequences such as TERRA RNA....

Electroanalytical and spectroscopic procedures for examination of interactions between double stranded DNA and intercalating drugs
PublicationPrzedstawiono metodę elektrochemicznego opisu oddziaływań dsDNA ze związkiem biologicznie czynnym w warunkach, w których zarówno badany związek jak i cząsteczka DNA są w roztworze elektrolitu. Opracowano warunki pomiaru, gdzie ani związek, ani DNA nie adsorbuje na elektrodzie. Wykazano, podobnie jak podczas badania innymi metodami, że oddziaływania są dwojakiego rodzaju: elektrostatyczne i poporzez interkalację.

Quantitative fluorescent determination of DNA – Ochratoxin a interactions supported by nitrogen-vacancy rich nanodiamonds
PublicationOchratoxin A (OTA) is a hazardous contaminant of a large variety of plant and animal originated food. Herein, we report an interaction of OTA with calf thymus DNA (ct DNA) on the nanodiamond surface. We employed multispectroscopic techniques to elucidate the binding mechanism of OTA with ct DNA. The fluorescence and UV–Vis spectroscopy results show that OTA binds to ds ct DNA and forms complexes. We obtained the binding constants...

Improvements and new functionalities of UNRES server for coarse-grained modeling of protein structure, dynamics, and interactions
PublicationIn this paper we report the improvements and extensions of the UNRES server (https://unres-server.chem.ug.edu.pl) for physics-based simulations with the coarse-grained UNRES model of polypeptide chains. The improvements include the replacement of the old code with the recently optimized one and adding the recent scale-consistent variant of the UNRES force field, which performs better in the modeling of proteins with the β and the...
