Recently it has been shown that several analogues of the clinically ineffective trans-DDP exhibit antitumor activity comparable to that of cis-DDP. The present paper describes the binding of antitumor trans-[PtCl(2)(E-iminoether)(2)] (trans-EE) to guanosinemonophosphate (GMP) and adenosinemonophosphate (AMP). We have used HPLC and (1)H and (15)N NMR to characterize the different adducts. In the case of a 1:1 mixture of trans-EE and GMP, at an early stage of the reaction, a monofunctional adduct is formed which, subsequently, is partly converted into a monosolvated monofunctional species. After about 70 hours an equilibrium is established between chloro and solvato monofunctional adducts at a ratio of 30/70. In the presence of excess GMP (4:1) the initially formed monofunctional adducts react further to give two bifunctional adducts, one with the iminoether ligands in their original E configurations and the other with the iminoether ligands having one E and the other, Z configurations. The coordination geometry obtained by energy minimization calculations is in qualitative agreement with 2D NMR data.

Four trinucleotides 5'-ATA-3' (I), 5'-ATC-3' (II), 5'-CTA-3' (III) and 5'-CTC-3' (IV) were introduced to interact with a diazido-based photoactivatable anticancer prodrug ,,-[Pt(N)(OH)(py)] (py = pyridine; 1) upon light irradiation. Using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), we aimed to investigate the possibility of 1,3-intrastrand crosslinks at adenine and/or cytosine in the trinucleotides the bi-functional -[Pt(py)] species generated by photodecomposition of complex 1. The primary mass spectrometry results showed that although mono- and di-platinated trinucleotides bound by mono-functional -[Pt(N)(py)] species were the major platinated adducts, comparable amounts of bifunctional -[Pt(py)]-bound trinucleotides were also observed.

Targeting - and -deficient tumors through synthetic lethality using poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) has emerged as a successful strategy for cancer therapy. PARPi monotherapy has shown excellent efficacy and safety profiles in clinical practice but is limited by the need for tumor genome mutations in or other homologous recombination genes as well as the rapid emergence of resistance. In this study, we identified 2-chloro--diethylethanamine hydrochloride (CDEAH) as a small molecule that selectively kills - and xeroderma pigmentosum A-deficient cells.

The migration of chemicals from polyurethane (PUR) is a concern in many applications, such as adhesives for food packaging. Low molecular weight catalysts, which are prone to migration, need to be eliminated from PUR, in particular those containing Sn or other metals. This is difficult partly due to many uncertainties of autocatalytic polyaddition between isocyanates and polyols.

DNA-dependent DNA and RNA polymerases are important modulators of biological functions such as replication, transcription, recombination, or repair. In this work performed in cell-free media, we studied the ability of selected DNA polymerases to overcome a monofunctional adduct of the cytotoxic/antitumor platinum-acridinylthiourea conjugate [PtCl(en)(L)](NO) (en = ethane-1,2-diamine, L = 1-[2-(acridin-9-ylamino)ethyl]-1,3-dimethylthiourea) (ACR) in its favored 5'-CG sequence. We focused on how a single site-specific ACR adduct with intercalation potency affects the processivity and fidelity of DNA-dependent DNA polymerases involved in translesion synthesis (TLS) and repair.
