Abstract
The conformational changes induced by the binding of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) to poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) have been studied by reaction with specific antibodies, by circular dichroism and 31P nuclear magnetic resonance. Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to Z-DNA bind to platinated poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) at low and high ionic strength. Antibodies elicited in rabbits immunized with the platinated polynucleotide bind to double stranded polynucleotides known to adopt the Z-conformation. At low and high ionic strength the circular dichroism spectrum of platinated poly(dG-dC).poly(dG- dC) does not resemble that of poly(dG-dC).poly(dG-dC) (B or Z conformation). At low ionic strength, the characteristic 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of the Z-form is not detected. It appears only at high ionic strength, as a component of a more complex spectrum.
