Abstract: The spatial structure of duplex (Phn-NH(CH2)2NH)pd(CCAAACA).pd(TGTTTGGC) having a N-(2-oxyethyl)-phenazinium residue covalently linked with the 5'-terminal phosphate of the heptanucleotide was studied by means of one- and two-dimensional H-1-NMR spectroscopy. The resonances of phenazinium protons, ethylenediamine linker protons, as well as, oligonucleotide H5/H6/H8/CH3 base protons and H1', H2'a, H2'b, H3', H4' deoxyribose protons have been assigned by means of H-1-COSY, H-1-NOESY and H-1-C-13-COSY. The presence of the phenazine residue in duplex causes an additional imino proton signal of the terminal (G-7).(C-1) base pair, suggesting a higher stability of the duplex (Phn-NH(CH2)2NH)pd(CCAAACA).pd(TGTTTGGC) as compared to the unmodified duplex pd(CCAAACA).pd(TGTTTGGC). Analysis of NOE interactions between protons of the dye and the oligonucleotides show the phenazinium polycyclic system to intercalate between G-7 and C-8 residues of the octanucleotide.
