== Publication Abstract from PubMed == | |||
Ellipticine is a natural plant product that has been found to be a powerful anticancer drug. Although still unclear, its mechanism of action is considered to be mainly based on DNA intercalation and/or the inhibition of topoisomerase II. Many experimental data suggest an intercalation based on stacking interactions along the major base-pair axis, but alternative binding modes have been proposed, in particular for ellipticine derivatives. The 1.5 A resolution structure of ellipticine complexed to a 6 bp oligonucleotide unveils its mode of binding and enables a detailed analysis of the distorting effects of the drug on the DNA. | |||
The anticancer agent ellipticine unwinds DNA by intercalative binding in an orientation parallel to base pairs.,Canals A, Purciolas M, Aymami J, Coll M Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr. 2005 Jul;61(Pt 7):1009-12. Epub 2005, Jun 24. PMID:15983425<ref>PMID:15983425</ref> | |||
