Its active form, [Pt(ammine)(cyclohexylamine)]2+, binds to DNA similarly to cisplatin, forming intra- and interstrand cross-links between adjacent purine bases. Since [Pt(ammine)(cyclohexylamine)]2+ contains two different ligands, it can form two isomeric 1,2-d(GpG) intrastrand cross-links. Here we report the 2.4-A resolution x-ray crystal structure of the major adduct between [Pt(ammine)(cyclohexylamine)]2+ and a DNA dodecamer, using the same sequence as previously reported for crystal structures of cisplatin-DNA (Takahara, P. M., Rosenzweig, A. C., Frederick, C. A., and Lippard, S. J. (1995) Nature 377, 649-652) and oxaliplatin-DNA (Spingler, B., Whittington, D. A., and Lippard, S. J. (2001) Inorg. Chem. 40, 5596-5602). Both duplexes in the asymmetric unit contain 1,2-intrastrand cross-links in which the cyclohexylamine ligand is directed toward the 3'-end of the platinated strand. The chair conformation of the cyclohexyl group is clearly resolved. Platination distorts the duplex, resulting in a global bend angle of about 38(o) and a dihedral angle between platinated guanine bases of approximately 31(o). Both end-to-end and end-to-groove packing interactions occur in the crystal lattice, the latter positioned in the minor groove across from the site of the platinum cross-link. A high degree of homology observed between this structure and the previously reported platinum-DNA structures suggests that these platinum complexes distort the DNA duplex in a very similar manner. These results suggest that differences in activity between these drugs are unlikely to result from gross conformational distortions in DNA structure following platinum intrastrand cross-link formation. 2.4-A crystal structure of the asymmetric platinum complex [Pt(ammine)(cyclohexylamine)]2+ bound to a dodecamer DNA duplex.,Silverman AP, Bu W, Cohen SM, Lippard SJ J Biol Chem. 2002 Dec 20;277(51):49743-9.
