Abstract
A benzothiazole-substituted derivative (X) of 1,3-diaza-2-oxophenoxazine was evaluated with respect to its ability to engage in Ag(I)-mediated homo base pair formation in two different DNA duplexes. The metal binding was determined by a combination of temperature-dependent UV spectroscopy, CD spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy, indicating the incorporation of two Ag(I) ions to generate a dinuclear X-Ag(I)2-X base pair. Interestingly, a luminescence increase was observed upon metal binding. Theoretical luminescence spectra were calculated using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) for all possible Ag(I)-mediated X : X base pair geometries to identify the species responsible for the increase in luminescence. The study shows that even bulky non-planar artificial nucleobases can be applied to form stabilizing metal-mediated base pairs.

Abstract
Metal-mediated base pairs have widespread applications, such as in DNA-metal nanodevices and sensors. Here, we focused on their sugar conformation in duplexes and observed the crystallographic structure of the non-canonical DNA/DNA duplex containing 2'-O,4'-C-methylene bridged nucleic acid in the presence of AgI ions. The X-ray crystallographic structure was successfully obtained at a resolution of 1.5 Å. A novel type of AgI -mediated base pair between the N1 positions of anti-conformation of adenines in the duplex was observed. In the central non-canonical region, a hexad nucleobase structure containing AgI -mediated base pairs between the N7 positions of guanines was formed. A highly bent non-canonical structure was formed at the origin of AgI -mediated base pairs in the central region. The bent duplex structure induced by the addition of AgI ions might become a powerful tool for dynamic structural changes in DNA nanotechnology applications.

Abstract
The artificial nucleobase 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-1,N6-ethenoadenine (X) was investigated with respect to its ability to engage in Ag(I)-mediated base pairing in DNA. Spectroscopic data indicate the formation of dinuclear X-Ag(I)2-X homo base pairs and mononuclear X-Ag(I)-C base pairs (C, cytosine). Density functional theory calculations and molecular dynamics simulations indicate that the nucleobase changes from its lactam tautomeric form prior to the formation of the Ag(I)-mediated base pair to the lactim form after the incorporation of the Ag(I) ions. Fluorescence spectroscopy indicates that the two Ag(I) ions of the homo base pair are incorporated sequentially. Isothermal titration calorimetry confirms that the affinity of one of the Ag(I) ions is about tenfold higher than that of the other Ag(I) ion. The computational analysis by means of density functional theory confirms a much larger reaction energy for the incorporation of the first Ag(I) ion. The thermal stabilization upon the formation of the dinuclear Ag(I)-mediated homo base pair exceeds the one previously observed for the closely related nucleobase 1,N6-ethenoadenine by far, despite very similar structures. This additional stabilization may stem from the presence of water molecules engaged in hydrogen bonding with the additional oxygen atom of the artificial nucleobase X. The highly stabilizing Ag(I)-mediated base pair is a valuable addition to established dinuclear metal-mediated base pairs.

Abstract
DNA duplexes comprising 6‐(1H‐pyrazol‐1‐yl)‐9H‐purine (6PP), 1‐deaza‐6PP (1D6PP), 7‐deaza‐6PP (7D6PP) and 1,7‐dideaza‐6PP (1,7D6PP) 2′‐deoxyribonucleosides, respectively, were investigated towards their ability to form metal‐mediated base pairs in the presence of AgI. In 6PP and 7D6PP, the AgI ion can coordinate to the nucleobase via the endocyclic N1 nitrogen atom, that is, via the Watson–Crick edge. In contrast, this nitrogen atom is not available in 1D6PP and 1,7D6PP, so that in 1D6PP an AgI coordination is only possible via the Hoogsteen edge (N7). Reference duplexes with either adenine:adenine mispairs or canonical adenine:thymine base pairs were used to investigate the impact of the pyrazolyl moiety on the AgI‐binding properties. To determine the thermal and structural duplex stabilities in the absence or presence of AgI, all duplexes were examined by UV and circular dichroism spectroscopic studies. These investigations shed light on the question of whether N1‐ or N7‐coordination is preferred in purine‐based metal‐mediated base pairs.

Abstract
Quantum mechanical (QM) and hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) molecular dynamics simulations of a recently reported dinuclear mercury(II)-mediated base pair were performed aiming to analyse its intramolecular bonding pattern, its stability, and to obtain clues on the mechanism of the incorporation of mercury(II) into the DNA. The dynamic distance constraint was employed to find initial structures, control the dissociation process in an unbiased fashion and to determine the free energy required. A strong influence of the exocyclic carbonyl or amino groups of neighbouring base pairs on both the bonding pattern and the mechanism of incorporation was observed. During the dissociation simulation, an amino group of an adenine moiety of the adjacent base pair acts as a turnstile to rotate the mercury(II) ion out of the DNA core region. The calculations provide an important insight into the mechanism of formation of this dinuclear metal-mediated base pair and indicate that the exact location of a transition metal ion in a metal-mediated base pair may be more ambiguous than derived from simple model building.

Abstract
Metal-mediated base pairs involving artificial nucleobases have emerged as a promising means for the site-specific functionalization of nucleic acids with metal ions. In this context, a GNA-appended (GNA: glycol nucleic acid) nucleoside analogue containing the artificial nucleobase 1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (P) has already been applied successfully in a variety of homo- and heteroleptic metal-mediated base pairs, mainly involving Ag(I) ions. Herein, we report a thorough investigation of the Hg(II)-binding properties of P when incorporated into antiparallel-stranded DNA duplexes. The artificial nucleobase P is able to form Hg(II)-mediated homoleptic base pairs of the type P-Hg(II)-P with a [2 + 2] coordination environment. In addition, the heteroleptic P-Hg(II)-T pair was investigated. The addition of a stoichiometric amount of Hg(II) to a duplex comprising either a P:P pair or a P:T pair stabilizes the DNA duplex by 4.3 °C and 14.5 °C, respectively. The P-Hg(II)-T base pair, hence, represents the most stabilizing non-organometallic Hg(II)-mediated base pair reported to date. The formation of the Hg(II)-mediated base pairs was investigated by means of temperature-dependent UV spectroscopy and CD spectroscopy.

Abstract
The incorporation of metal ions into nucleic acids by means of metal-mediated base pairs represents a promising and prominent strategy for the site-specific decoration of these self-assembling supramolecules with metal-based functionality. Over the past 20 years, numerous nucleoside surrogates have been introduced in this respect, broadening the metal scope by providing perfectly tailored metal-binding sites. More recently, artificial nucleosides derived from natural purine or pyrimidine bases have moved into the focus of AgI -mediated base pairing, due to their expected compatibility with regular Watson-Crick base pairs. This minireview summarizes these advances in metal-mediated base pairing but also includes further recent progress in the field. Moreover, it addresses other aspects of metal-modified nucleic acids, highlighting an expansion of the concept to metal-mediated base triples (in triple helices and three-way junctions) and metal-mediated base tetrads (in quadruplexes). For all types of metal-modified nucleic acids, proposed or accomplished applications are briefly mentioned, too.

Abstract
Metal-mediated base pairs (MMBPs) formed by natural or artificial nucleobases have recently been developed. The metal ions can be aligned linearly in a duplex by MMBP formation. The development of a three- or more-metal-coordinated MMBPs has the potential to improve the conductivity and enable the design of metal ion architectures in a duplex. This study aimed to develop artificial self-bases coordinated by three linearly aligned AgI ions within an MMBP. Thus, artificial nucleic acids with a 1,3,9-triaza-2-oxophenoxazine (9-TAP) nucleobase were designed and synthesized. In a DNA/DNA duplex, self-base pairs of 9-TAP could form highly stable MMBPs with three AgI ions. Nine equivalents of AgI led to the formation of three consecutive 9-TAP self-base pairs with extremely high stability. The complex structures of 9-TAP MMBPs were determined by using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and UV titration experiments. Highly stable self-9-TAP MMBPs with three AgI ions are expected to be applicable to new DNA nanotechnologies.

Abstract
Recently, the T-Hg(ii)2-A base pair containing two equivalents of Hg(ii) has been prepared and characterized experimentally, which implies that there might exist considerable stable metal-mediated base pairs holding two neighbouring metal centers. Here we report a quantum chemical study on geometries, electronic structures, and bonding of various G2Cu2 4+ (G = guanine) isomers including one di-copper(i) unit. Different density functional methods [Becke 3-parameter-Lee-Yang-Parr, Perdew-Becke-Ernzerhof, Becke-Perdew, Density Functional Theory with Dispersion Corrections (DFT-D)] assign ambiguous relative energies to these isomers with the singlet and triplet states. High-level ab initio [domain-based local pair natural orbital (DLPNO) coupled-cluster with single and double excitations and DLPNO-coupled-cluster with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations] calculations confirm that the lowest-lying isomer of the G2Cu2 4+ ion has C 2h symmetry with the singlet state and is comparable to the singly and doubly charged homologues (G2Cu2 + and G2Cu2 2+). The extended transition state (ETS)-natural orbitals for the chemical valence (ETS-NOCV) calculations point out that it has larger instantaneous interaction energy and bond dissociation energy than the corresponding singly and doubly charged complexes due to its relatively stronger attractive energies and weaker Pauli repulsion. The orbital interactions in the quadruply charged cluster chiefly come from Cu2 4+ ← G⋯G π donations. The results may help the understanding of the bonding properties of other potential metal-base pair complexes with the electron transfer.

Abstract
In nucleic acid chemistry, metal-mediated base pairs represent a versatile method for the site-specific introduction of metal-based functionality. In metal-mediated base pairs, the hydrogen bonds between complementary nucleobases are replaced by coordinate bonds to one or two transition metal ions located in the helical core. In recent years, the concept of metal-mediated base pairing has found a significant extension by applying it to parallel-stranded DNA duplexes. The antiparallel-stranded orientation of the complementary strands as found in natural B-DNA double helices enforces a cisoid orientation of the glycosidic bonds. To enable the formation of metal-mediated base pairs preferring a transoid orientation of the glycosidic bonds, parallel-stranded duplexes have been investigated. In many cases, such as the well-established cytosine-Ag(I)-cytosine base pair, metal complex formation is more stabilizing in parallel-stranded DNA than in antiparallel-stranded DNA. This review presents an overview of all metal-mediated base pairs reported as yet in parallel-stranded DNA, compares them with their counterparts in regular DNA (where available), and explains the experimental conditions used to stabilize the respective parallel-stranded duplexes.

Abstract
The investigation of metal-mediated base pairs and the development of their applications represent a prominent area of research at the border of bioinorganic chemistry and supramolecular coordination chemistry. In metal-mediated base pairs, the complementary nucleobases in a nucleic acid duplex are connected by coordinate bonds to an embedded metal ion rather than by hydrogen bonds. Because metal-mediated base pairs facilitate a site-specific introduction of metal-based functionality into nucleic acids, they are ideally suited for use in DNA nanotechnology. This minireview gives an overview of the general requirements that need to be considered when devising a new metal-mediated base pair, both from a conceptual and from an experimental point of view. In addition, it presents selected recent applications of metal-modified nucleic acids to indicate the scope of metal-mediated base pairing.
