The crystal structure of Berberine bound to DNA d(CGTACG)
| ||||||||||||
Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMedThe first crystal structures of Berberine and Sanguinarine intercalated with a d(CGTACG)(2) DNA sequence were obtained by X-ray diffraction analysis at 2.3 A resolution. Both drugs join the end of two "two-molecules" DNA units, stacked in a non-classic intercalation site formed by six bases. Sanguinarine interacts with d(CGTACG)(2) DNA in its iminium form. X-Ray diffraction analyses of the natural isoquinoline alkaloids Berberine and Sanguinarine complexed with double helix DNA d(CGTACG).,Ferraroni M, Bazzicalupi C, Bilia AR, Gratteri P Chem Commun (Camb). 2011 May 7;47(17):4917-9.
