Abstract
Several studies with substitution-inert polynuclear platinum(II) complexes (SI-PPC) have been carried out in recent years due to the form of DNA binding presented by these compounds. This form of bonding is achieved by molecular recognition through the formation of non-covalent structures, commonly called phosphate clamps and forks, which generate small extensions of the major and minor grooves. In this work, we use molecular dynamics simulations (MD) to study the formation of these cyclical structures between six different SI-PPCs and a double DNA dodecamer, here called 24_bp_DNA. The results showed the influence of the complex expressed on the number of phosphate clamps and forks formed. Based on the conformational characterization of the DNA fragment, we show that the studied SI-PPCs interact preferentially in the minor groove, causing groove spanning, except for two of them, Monoplatin and AH44. The phosphates of C-G pairs are the main sites for such non-covalent interactions. The Gibbs interaction energy of solvated species points out to AH78P, AH78H, and TriplatinNC as the most probable ones when coupled with DNA. As far as we know, this work is the very first one related to SI-PPCs which brings MD simulations and a complete analysis of the non-covalent interactions with a double DNA dodecamer.

Abstract
We report herein a detailed NMR study of the aquation and subsequent covalent binding of the trinuclear clinical agent [{ trans-PtCl(15NH3)2}2{μ- trans-Pt(15NH3)2(15NH2(CH2)615NH2)2}]4+ (1, 1,0,1/ t, t, t or Triplatin) with three d-glucosamine residues containing varied O-sulfate and N-sulfate or N-acetyl substitutions, which represent monosaccharide fragments present within the repeating disaccharide sequences of cell surface heparan sulfate (HS). The monosaccharides GlcNS(6S), GlcNS, and GlcNAc(6S) were synthesized in good yield from a common 4,6-diol α-methyl glucopyranoside intermediate. The reactions of 15N-1 with sodium sulfate, GlcNS(6S), GlcNS, and GlcNAc(6S) were followed by 2D [1H,15N] heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) NMR spectroscopy using conditions (298 K, pH ≈5.4) similar to those previously used for other anionic systems, allowing for a direct comparison. The equilibrium constants (p K1) for the aquation of 1 in the presence of GlcNS(6S) and GlcNS were slightly higher compared to that of the aquation in a sulfate solution, while a comparable p K1 value was observed in the presence of GlcNAc(6S). A comparison of the rate constants for sulfate displacement of the aqua ligand showed preferential binding to 2- N-sulfate compared to 6- O-sulfate but a more rapid liberation. For disulfated GlcNS(6S), equilibrium conditions were achieved rapidly (9 h) and strongly favored the dichloro form, with <2% sulfato species observed. The value of kL1 was up to 15-fold lower than that for binding to sulfate, whereas the rate constant for the reverse ligation ( k-L1) was comparable. Equilibrium conditions were achieved much more slowly (∼ 100 h) for the reactions of 1 with GlcNS and GlcNAc(6S), attributed to covalent binding also to the N-donor of the sulfamate (GlcNS) group and the O-donor of the N-acetyl [GlcNAc(6S)] group. The rate constants ( kL2) were 20-40-fold lower than that for binding to the 2- N- or 6- O-sulfate, but the binding was less reversible, so that their equilibrium concentrations (5-8%) were comparable to the 2- N- or 6- O-sulfate-bound species. The results emphasize the relevance of glycans in bioinorganic chemistry and underpin a fundamental molecular description of the HS-Pt interactions that alter the profile of platinum agents from cytotoxic to metastatic in a systematic manner.

Abstract
2D [(1)H, (15)N] HSQC NMR spectroscopy has been used to monitor the reaction of fully (15)N-labelled [{trans-PtCl(NH3)2}2(μ-trans-Pt(NH3)2{NH2(CH2)6NH2}2)](4+) (BBR3464 ((15)N-1)) with the 14-mer duplex (5'-{d(ATACATG(7)G(8)TACATA)}-3'·5'-{d(TATG(18)TACCATG(25)TAT)}-3' or I) at pH 5.4 and 298 K, to examine the possible formation of 1,4 and 1,5-GG adducts in both 5'-5' and 3'-3' directions. In a previous study, the binding of the dinuclear 1,1/t,t to I showed specific formation of the 5'-5' 1,4 G(8)G(18) cross-link, whereas in this case a mixture of adducts were formed. Initial (1)H NMR spectra suggested the presence of two pre-associated states aligned in both directions along the DNA. The pre-association was studied in the absence of covalent binding, by use of the "non-covalent" analog [{trans-Pt(NH3)3}2(μ-trans-Pt(NH3)2{NH2(CH2)6NH2}2)](6+) (AH44, 0). Chemical shift changes of DNA protons combined with NOE connectivities between CH2 and NH3 protons of 0 and the adenine H2 protons on I show that two different molecules of 0 are bound in the minor groove. Molecular dynamic simulations were performed to study the interaction of 0 at the two pre-association sites using charges derived from density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Structures where the central platinum is located in the minor groove and the aliphatic linkers extend into the major groove, in opposite directions, often represent the lowest energy structures of the snapshots selected. In the reaction of (15)N-1 and I, following the pre-association step, aquation occurs to give the mono aqua monochloro species 2, with a rate constant of 3.43 ± 0.03 × 10(-5) s(-1). There was evidence for two monofunctional adducts (3, 4) bound to the 3' (G8) and 5' (G7) residues and the asymmetry of the (1)H,(15)N peak for 3 suggested two conformers of the 3' adduct, aligned in different directions along the DNA. The rate constant for combined monofunctional adduct formation (0.6 ± 0.1 M(-1)) is ca. 2-fold lower for 1 compared to 1,1/t,t, whereas the rate constant for conversion of the combined monofunctional species to combined bifunctional adducts (5) (8.0 ± 0.2 × 10(-5) s(-1)) is two-fold higher.

Abstract
The phosphate clamp is a distinct mode of ligand-DNA binding where the molecular recognition is manifested through ("non-covalent") hydrogen-bonding from am(m)ines of polynuclear platinum complexes to the phosphate oxygens on the oligonucleotide backbone. This third mode of DNA binding is unique to the "classical" DNA intercalators and minor groove binding agents and even the closely related covalently binding mononuclear and polynuclear drugs. 2D (1)H NMR studies on the Dickerson-Drew dodecamer (DDD, d(CGCGAATTCGCG)2) showed significant A-T contacts mainly on nucleotides A6, T7 and T8 implying a selective bridging from C9G10 in the 3' direction to C9G10 of the opposite strand. {(1)H, (15)N} HSQC NMR spectroscopy using the fully (15)N-labelled compound [{trans-Pt(NH2)3(H2N(CH2)6NH3}2μ-(H2N(CH2)6NH2)2(Pt(NH3)2](8+) (TriplatinNC) showed at pH 6 significant chemical shifts and (1)J((195)Pt-(15)N) coupling constants for the free drug and DDD-TriplatinNC at pH 7 indicative of formation of the phosphate clamp. (31)P NMR results are also reported for the hexamer d(CGTACG)2 showing changes in (31)P NMR chemical shifts indicative of changes around the phosphorus center. The studies confirm the DNA binding modes by substitution-inert (non-covalent) polynuclear platinum complexes and help in further establishing the chemotype as a new class of potential anti-tumour agents in their own right with a distinct profile of biological activity.

Abstract
We have studied theoretically the complexes of model N-phenylguanidine/ium derivatives with PtCl3(-) and PtCl2 in different coordinating modes (mono- and bidentate) with different N atoms of the guanidine/ium moiety using the B3LYP/6-31+G** and LANL2DZ mixed basis set. This will aid the understanding of the complexation between platinum and the guanidine or guanidinium moiety in order to design dual anticancer agents that combine a guanidine-based DNA minor groove binder and a cisplatin-like moiety. Calculated interaction and relative energies, analysis of the electron density, and examination of the orbital interactions indicate that the most stable type of complex is that with a monodentate interaction between PtCl3(-) and guanidinium established through one of the NH2 groups. Next, we optimized the structure of three bis-guanidinium diaromatic systems developed in our group as DNA minor groove binders and their complexation with PtCl3(-), finding that the formation of Pt complexes of these minor groove binders is favorable and would produce stable monodentate coordinated systems.

Abstract
2D [(1)H, (15)N] HSQC NMR spectroscopy has been used to monitor the reaction of fully (15)N-labelled [{trans-PtCl(NH(3))(2)}(2)(μ-trans-Pt(NH(3))(2){NH(2)(CH(2))(6)NH(2)}(2))](4+) (Triplatin, BBR3464 or 1,0,1/t,t,t ((15)N-1)) with the self-complementary 10-mer DNA duplex 5'-{d(ACGTATACGT)(2)} (duplex I) at pH 5.4 and 298 K. Initial electrostatic interactions were observed in the minor groove of the duplex, followed directly by aquation to form the monoaqua monochloro species. There was evidence for two discrete monofunctional adducts, through covalent binding at the guanine N7 sites, and one had distinctly different (1)H/(15)N chemical shifts to those observed previously in analogous reactions. Bifunctional adduct formation followed by binding at a second guanine N7 site with evidence for both the 3'-3' 1,2-GG and 5'-5' 1,6-GG interstrand cross-links in a ratio of 2 : 1. The results show that cross-link preference is kinetically controlled and will depend critically on the reaction conditions, explaining why in a previous reaction of 1 with duplex I the major adduct isolated by HPLC had two simultaneous 3'-3' 1,2-interstrand cross-links.

Abstract
The first observation of a polyamine-DNA interaction using 2D [(1)H, (15)N] HSQC NMR spectroscopy allows study of the role of the linker in polynuclear platinum-DNA interactions and a novel "anchoring" of the polyamine by Pt-DNA bond formation allows examination of the details of conformational B → Z transitions induced by the polyamine. The kinetics and mechanism of the stepwise formation of 5'-5' 1,4-GG interstrand cross-links (IXLs) by fully (15)N-labeled [{trans-PtCl((15)NH(3))(2)}(2){μ-((15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2))}](3+) (1,1/t,t-6,6, 1) and [{trans-PtCl((15)NH(3))(2)}(2){μ-((15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2)(CH(2))(2)(15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2))}](4+) (1,1/t,t-6,2,6, 1') with the self-complementary oligonucleotide 5'-{d(ATATGTACATAT)(2)} (duplex I) are compared to the analogous reaction with 1,0,1/t,t,t (BBR3464) under identical conditions (pH 5.4, 298 K). Initial electrostatic interactions with the DNA are delocalized and followed by aquation to form the monoaqua monochloro species. The rate constant for monofunctional adduct formation, k(MF), for 1 (0.87 M(-1) s(-1)) is 3.5 fold higher than for 1,0,1/t,t,t (0.25 M(-1) s(-1); the value could not be calculated for 1' due to peak overlap). The evidence suggests that several conformers of the bifunctional adduct form, whereas for 1,0,1/t,t,t only two discrete conformers were observed. The combined effect of the conformers observed for 1 and 1' may play a crucial role in the increased potency of these novel complexes compared to 1,0,1/t,t,t. Treated as a single final product, the rate of formation of the 5'-5' 1,4-GG IXL, k(CH), for 1 (k(CH) = 4.37 × 10(-5) s(-1)) is similar to that of 1,0,1/t,t,t, whereas the value for 1' is marginally higher (k(CH) = 5.4 × 10(-5) s(-1)).

Abstract
Polynuclear platinum compounds (PPCs) represent a discrete class of antitumor agents that bear structural resemblance to polyamines. This chapter reviews developments on the chemistry and biology of polynuclear platinum drugs and especially the recognition that “non-covalent” agents based on this motif represent a further challenge to the structure-activity paradigms for platinum antitumor agents. Pt-DNA bond formation is not a strict requirement for DNA affinity leading to manifestation of promising cytotoxicity and antitumor activity. Non-covalent PPCs bind to DNA in a non-covalent manner through a novel binding motif, the phosphate clamp, analogous to the arginine fork. This binding mode is discrete from “classical” intercalation and minor groove binding. In solution, analysis of 1-D and 2-D 1HNMR data places the compounds in the minor groove of the DNA, spanning several base pairs. A melphalan protection assay indicated that the complex was at least as effective in blocking melphalan access to the minor groove as distamycin. Further biological consequences of the structure are remarkably enhanced cellular accumulation, further distinguishing the non-covalent group as a unique class of agents.

Malina J, Farrell NP, Brabec V. DNA interstrand cross-links of an antitumor trinuclear platinum(II) complex: thermodynamic analysis and chemical probing. Chem Asian J 2011; 6:1566-74. [PMID: 21557487 DOI: 10.1002/asia.201000935] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2010] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
The trinuclear platinum compound [{trans-PtCl(NH(3))(2)}(2)(μ-trans-Pt(NH(3))(2){NH(2)(CH(2))(6)NH(2)}(2))](4+) (BBR3464) belongs to the polynuclear class of platinum-based anticancer agents. These agents form in DNA long-range (Pt,Pt) interstrand cross-links, whose role in the antitumor effects of BBR3464 predominates. Our results show for the first time that the interstrand cross-links formed by BBR3464 between two guanine bases in opposite strands separated by two base pairs (1,4-interstrand cross-links) exist as two distinct conformers, which are not interconvertible, not only if these cross-links are formed in the 5'-5', but also in the less-usual 3'-3' direction. Analysis of the conformers by differential scanning calorimetry, chemical probes of DNA conformation, and minor groove binder Hoechst 33258 demonstrate that each of the four conformers affects DNA in a distinctly different way and adopts a different conformation. The results also support the thesis that the molecule of antitumor BBR3464 when forming DNA interstrand cross-links may adopt different global structures, including different configurations of the linker chain of BBR3464 in the minor groove of DNA. Our findings suggest that the multiple DNA interstrand cross-links available to BBR3464 may all contribute substantially to its cytotoxicity.

Abstract
The aquation profiles of two novel dinuclear polyamine-linked, platinum-based antitumour complexes [{trans-PtCl((15)NH(3))(2)}(2){μ-((15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2))}](3+) (BBR3007, 1,1/t,t-6,6, 1) and [{trans-PtCl((15)NH(3))(2)}(2){μ-((15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2)(CH(2))(2)(15)NH(2)(CH(2))(6)(15)NH(2))}](4+) (BBR3610, 1,1/t,t-6,2,6, 1') have been probed using 2D [(1)H, (15)N] HSQC NMR spectroscopy. Reported herein are the rate constants for the hydrolysis of 1 and 1', as well as the acid dissociation constants of the coordinated aqua ligands in their aquated derivatives. The aquation and anation rate constants for the single step aquation model in 15 mM NaClO(4) (pH 5.4) at 298 K are, for 1, k(1) = 7.2 ± 0.1 ×10(-5) s(-1), k(-1) = 0.096 ± 0.002 M(-1) s(-1) and, for 1', k(1) = 4.0 ± 0.2 × 10(-5) s(-1), k(-1) = 1.4 ± 0.1 M(-1) s(-1). The effect of the linker backbone (Pt(tetra(m)mine vs. polyamine) was evaluated by comparison with previous data for the trinuclear complex [{trans-PtCl(NH(3))(2)}(2)(μ-trans-Pt(NH(3))(2){NH(2)(CH(2))(6)NH(2)}(2))](4+) (1,0,1/t,t,t or BBR3464). The pK(1) for 1,0,1/t,t,t (3.44) is closest to that of 1 (3.12), while the pronounced difference for 1' (4.54), means that 1' is the least aquated of the three complexes at equilibrium. pK(a) values of 5.92 were calculated for the aquated forms of both 1 and 1', which are 0.3 pK units higher than for either 1,0,1/t,t,t, or the dinuclear 1,1/t,t. The higher pK(a) values for both polyamine-linked compounds may be attributed to the formation of macrochelates between the central NH(2) groups and the {PtN(3)O} coordination sphere of the aquated species.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) [(1)H, (15)N] heteronuclear single-quantum coherence (HSQC) NMR experiments of the kinetics of aquation and sulfation of the dinuclear platinum anticancer complex [{trans-PtCl(NH(3))(2)}(2)(μ-NH(2)(CH(2))(6)NH(2))](2+) (1,1/t,t, 1) in 15 mM sulfate solution are reported using conditions (298 K, pH 5.4) identical to those previously used for other anionic systems (phosphate and acetate), allowing for a direct comparison. Sulfate is the fourth most abundant anion in human plasma. The rate constant for the aquation step (k(H)) is higher than that previously found in the presence of phosphate, but the anation rate constants are similar. The rate constant for sulfate displacement of the aqua ligand (k(L)) is approximately three times higher than that of phosphate, and a further major difference between these two anions is the very high k(-L) for loss of sulfate, suggesting that when formed in plasma the sulfato species will be substitution labile. We also introduce a novel (free) plug-in, '2D NMR analysis', developed for the expedited integration and analysis of 2D [(1)H, (15)N] HSQC NMR spectra. We have found that this plug-in significantly reduces the amount of time taken in the analysis of experiments with no loss to the quality of the data.

Abstract
Polynuclear platinum agents are a structurally unique class of anti-cancer drugs, distinct from the cisplatin family. To describe the chemistry and biology of this class, it was necessary to challenge the accepted paradigms for the structure-activity relationships; design new chemotypes and delineate the structures and consequences of their DNA binding modes. This article summarizes the structural changes induced in DNA by both covalent (bond-forming) and non-covalent (ligand recognition) adducts. Solution (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance), solid state (crystallography) and gas-phase (Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry) techniques have all been used to describe the new DNA structures along with molecular biological techniques. The combined approaches allow molecular description of hitherto unobserved adducts such as long-range major-groove interstrand crosslinks; directional isomers on DNA and a third class of ligand-DNA binding, the phosphate clamp. The phosphate recognition is distinct from ''classic'' minor-groove recognition or intercalation.

Abstract
The trinuclear BBR3464 ([{trans-PtCl(NH3)2}2µ-(trans-Pt(NH3)2(H2N(CH2)6NH2)2)]4+) belongs to the polynuclear class of platinum-based anticancer agents. DNA adducts of this complex differ significantly in structure and type from those of clinically used mononuclear platinum complexes, especially, long-range (Pt, Pt) intrastrand and interstrand cross-links are formed in both 5′–5′ and 3′–3′ orientations. We show employing short oligonucleotide duplexes containing single, site-specific cross-links of BBR3464 and gel electrophoresis that in contrast to major DNA adducts of clinically used platinum complexes, under physiological conditions the coordination bonds between platinum and N7 of G residues involved in the cross-links of BBR3464 can be cleaved. This cleavage may lead to the linkage isomerization reactions between this metallodrug and double-helical DNA. Differential scanning calorimetry of duplexes containing single, site-specific cross-links of BBR3464 reveals that one of the driving forces that leads to the lability of DNA cross-links of this metallodrug is a difference between the thermodynamic destabilization induced by the cross-link and by the adduct into which it could isomerize. The rearrangements may proceed in the way that cross-links originally formed in one strand of DNA can spontaneously translocate from one DNA strand to its complementary counterpart, which may evoke walking of the platinum complex on DNA molecule.

Abstract
Since its approval in 1979 cisplatin has become an important component in chemotherapy regimes for the treatment of ovarian, testicular, lung and bladder cancers, as well as lymphomas, myelomas and melanoma. Unfortunately its continued use is greatly limited by severe dose limiting side effects and intrinsic or acquired drug resistance. Over the last 30 years, 23 other platinum-based drugs have entered clinical trials with only two (carboplatin and oxaliplatin) of these gaining international marketing approval, and another three (nedaplatin, lobaplatin and heptaplatin) gaining approval in individual nations. During this time there have been more failures than successes with the development of 14 drugs being halted during clinical trials. Currently there are four drugs in the various phases of clinical trial (satraplatin, picoplatin, Lipoplatin and ProLindac). No new small molecule platinum drug has entered clinical trials since 1999 which is representative of a shift in focus away from drug design and towards drug delivery in the last decade. In this perspective article we update the status of platinum anticancer drugs currently approved for use, those undergoing clinical trials and those discontinued during clinical trials, and discuss the results in the context of where we believe the field will develop over the next decade.
