The optimized structures were compared to the original experimental NMR structure (Nat. Chem. 2 (2010) 229-234). The metalcdots, three dots, centeredmetal distances are significantly shorter (~0.5A) in the QM/MM model than in the original NMR structure. As a result, argentophilic interactions are feasible between the silver(I) ions of neighboring metal-mediated base pairs. Using the computationally determined metalcdots, three dots, centeredmetal distances, a re-refined NMR solution structure of the DNA duplex was obtained. In this new NMR structure, all experimental constraints remain fulfilled. The new NMR structure shows less deviation from the regular B-type conformation than the original one. This investigation shows that the application of QM/MM models to generate additional constraints to be used during NMR structural refinements represents an elegant approach to obtaining high-resolution NMR structures.
