Abstract
In this work, the possibility of constructing a thermo-switchable enzyme according to the "molecular gate" strategy is demonstrated. The approach is based on the covalent attachment of oligodeoxyribonucleotides to cysteine residues of an enzyme adjacent to its active center to form a temporal barrier for enzyme-substrate complex formation. The activity of the modified enzyme that had been studied here-the restriction endonuclease SsoII (R.SsoII)-was diminished by a factor of 180 at 25 °С that almost abolished the enzymatic activity when compared with the unmodified enzyme. However, heating of the modified enzyme to 45 °С resulted in a 30-fold increase of activity. The activity of unmodified R.SsoII also increased on heating from 25 to 45 °; however, the difference did not exceed a factor of 3-4. The changes in enzymatic activity observed were shown to be reversible for both the unmodified and the modified R.SsoII. Variation of the length and the sequence of the attached oligodeoxyribonucleotides might allow greater modulation of the activity of DNA-protein conjugates.

Abstract
We study chiral electrostatic interaction between artificial ideal homopolymer DNA-like molecules in which a number of phosphate groups of the sugar-phosphate backbone are exchanged for the pyrophosphate ones. We employ a model in which the DNA is considered as a one-dimensional lattice of dipoles and charges corresponding to base pairs and (pyro)phosphate groups, respectively. The interaction between molecules of the DNA is described by a pair potential U of electrostatic forces between the two sets of dipoles and charges belonging to respective lattices describing the molecules. Minima of the potential U indicate orientational ordering of the molecules and thus liquid crystalline phases of the DNA. We use numerical methods for finding the set of minima in conjunction with symmetries verified by the potential U . The symmetries form a non-commutative group of 8th order, S . Using the group S we suggest a classification of liquid crystalline phases of the DNA, which allows several cholesteric phases, that is polymorphism. Pyrophosphate forms of the DNA could clarify the role played by charges in their liquid crystalline phases, and open experimental research, important for nano-technological and bio-medical applications.

Abstract
Design of novel DNA probes to inhibit specific repair pathways is important for basic science applications and for use as therapeutic agents. As shown previously, single pyrophosphate (PP) and O-ethyl-substituted pyrophosphate (SPP) modifications can inhibit the DNA glycosylase activities on damaged DNA. To understand the structural basis of this inhibition, the influence of the PP and SPP internucleotide groups on the helical parameters and geometry of a double-stranded DNA was studied by using molecular modeling tools including molecular dynamics and quantum mechanical-molecular mechanical (QM/MM) approaches. Native and locally modified PP- and SPP-containing DNA duplexes of dodecanucleotide d(C1G2C3G4A5A6T7T8C9G10C11G12) were simulated in aqueous solution. The energies and forces were computed by using the PBE0/6-31+G** approach in the QM part and the AMBER force-field parameters in the MM part. Analysis of the local base-pair helical parameters, internucleotide distances, and overall global structure at the located stationary points revealed a close similarity of the initial and modified duplexes, with only torsion angles of the main chain being altered in the vicinity of introduced chemical modification. Results show that the PP and SPP groups are built into a helix structure without elongation of the internucleotide distance due to flipping-out of phosphate group from the sugar-phosphate backbone. The mechanism of such embedding has only a minor impact on the base pairs stacking and Watson-Crick interactions. Biochemical studies revealed that the PP and SPP groups immediately 5', but not 3', to the 8-oxoguanosine (8oxodG) inhibit translesion synthesis by a DNA polymerase in vitro. These results suggest that subtle perturbations of the DNA backbone conformation influence processing of base lesions.

Abstract
Escherichia coli formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (Fpg) and human 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (hOgg1) initiate the base excision repair pathway for 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) residues present in DNA. Recent structural and biochemical studies of Fpg-DNA and hOgg1-DNA complexes point to the existence of extensive interactions between phosphate groups and amino acids. However, the role of these contacts and their physiological relevance remains unclear. In the present study, we combined chemical cross-linking and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI/MS/MS) approaches to identify interacting residues in the Fpg-DNA and hOgg1-DNA complexes. The active centers of Fpg and hOgg1 were cross-linked with a series of reactive oligonucleotide duplexes containing both a single 8-oxoG residue and an O-ethyl-substituted pyrophosphate internucleotide (SPI) group at different positions in duplex DNA. The cross-linking efficiency reached 50% for Fpg and 30% for hOgg1. We have identified seven phosphate groups on both strands of the DNA duplex specifically interacting with nucleophilic amino acids in Fpg, and eight in hOgg1. MS/MS analysis of the purified proteolytic fragments suggests that lysine 56 of Fpg and lysine 249 of hOgg1 cross-link to the phosphate located 3' to the 8-oxoG residue. Site-specific mutagenesis analysis of Fpg binding to DNA substrate confirms the conclusions of our approach. Our results are consistent with crystallographic data on the Fpg-DNA complex and provide new data on the hOgg1-DNA interaction. The approach developed in this work provides a useful tool to study pro- and eukaryotic homologues of Fpg as well as other repair enzymes.

Abstract
Properties of 2'-aldehyde-containing double stranded DNAs (dsDNAs) have been studied for the first time as substrate analogs of the restriction endonuclease SsoII. These reactive oligonucleotides were successfully cross-linked to the restriction endonuclease SsoII by reductive amination, and conditions for DNA-protein conjugate trypsinolysis followed by the oligonucleotide-peptide conjugate purification were optimized. Use of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry revealed that covalent linkage forms between the sugar moiety of the central pyrimidine nucleoside of the SsoII recognition site and Lys173 of the enzyme. The latter is probably involved in initial steps of enzyme-substrate recognition during dsDNA readout.

Abstract
Escherichia coli formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (Fpg) and human 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (hOGG1) are base excision repair enzymes involved in the 8-oxoguanine (oxoG) repair pathway. Specific contacts between these enzymes and DNA phosphate groups play a significant role in DNA-protein interactions. To reveal the phosphates crucial for lesion excision by Fpg and hOGG1, modified DNA duplexes containing pyrophosphate and OEt-substituted pyrophosphate internucleotide (SPI) groups near the oxoG were tested as substrate analogues for both proteins. We have shown that Fpg and hOGG1 recognize and specifically bind the DNA duplexes tested. We have found that both enzymes were not able to excise the oxoG residue from DNA containing modified phosphates immediately 3' to the 8-oxoguanosine (oxodG) and one nucleotide 3' away from it. In contrast, they efficiently incised DNA duplexes bearing the same phosphate modifications 5' to the oxodG and two nucleotides 3' away from the lesion. The effect of these phosphate modifications on the substrate properties of oxoG-containing DNA duplexes is discussed. Non-cleavable oxoG-containing DNA duplexes bearing pyrophosphate or SPI groups immediately 3' to the oxodG or one nucleotide 3' away from it are specific inhibitors for both 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylases and can be used for structural studies of complexes comprising a wild-type enzymes bound to oxoG-containing DNA.

Abstract
The NF-kappaB transcriptional factor regulates various functions such as immune responses, cellular growth and development, and is frequently activated in tumor cells. Thus, inhibition of NF-kappaB could suppress tumor cell growth. Using a decoy synthetic hairpin-shaped oligodeoxyribonucleotide (ODN) containing the kappaB site with an integrated single diphosphoryldisulfide linkage, we demonstrate its covalent binding to the p50 subunit of NF-kappaB. Furthermore, this decoy ODN induces apoptosis in a lymphoblastoma cell line. Thus, such chemically modified decoys could be valuable tools for blocking nuclear factors and tumor cell growth.

Abstract
We present here the first detailed biochemical analysis of an archaeal restriction enzyme. PspGI shows sequence similarity to SsoII, EcoRII, NgoMIV and Cfr10I, which recognize related DNA sequences. We demonstrate here that PspGI, like SsoII and unlike EcoRII or NgoMIV and Cfr10I, interacts with and cleaves DNA as a homodimer and is not stimulated by simultaneous binding to two recognition sites. PspGI and SsoII differ in their basic biochemical properties, viz. stability against chemical denaturation and proteolytic digestion, DNA binding and the pH, MgCl(2) and salt-dependence of their DNA cleavage activity. In contrast, the results of mutational analyses and cross-link experiments show that PspGI and SsoII have a very similar DNA binding site and catalytic center as NgoMIV and Cfr10I (whose crystal structures are known), and presumably also as EcoRII, in spite of the fact that these enzymes, which all recognize variants of the sequence -/CC-GG- (/ denotes the site of cleavage), are representatives of different subgroups of type II restriction endonucleases. A sequence comparison of all known restriction endonuclease sequences, furthermore, suggests that several enzymes recognizing other DNA sequences also share amino acid sequence similarities with PspGI, SsoII and EcoRII in the region of the presumptive active site. These results are discussed in an evolutionary context.

Abstract
Specific contacts between DNA phosphate groups and positively charged nucleophilic amino acids from the Escherichia coli Fpg protein play a significant role in DNA-Fpg protein interaction. In order to identify these phosphate groups the chemical crosslinking procedure was carried out. The probing of the Fpg protein active center was performed using a series of reactive DNA duplexes containing both a single 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanosine (oxoG) residue and O-alkyl-substituted pyrophosphate internucleotide groups at the same time. Reactive internucleotide groups were introduced in dsDNA immediately 5' or 3' to the oxidative lesion and one or two nucleotides 5' or 3' away from it. We showed that the Fpg protein specifically binds to the modified DNA duplexes. The binding efficiency varied with the position of the reactive group and was higher for the duplexes containing substituted pyrophosphate groups at the ends of pentanucleotide with the oxoG in the center. The nicking efficiency of the DNA duplexes containing the reactive groups one or two nucleotides 5' away from the lesion was higher as compared to non-modified DNA duplex bearing only the oxidative damage. We found two novel non-hydrolizable substrate analogs for the Fpg protein containing pyrophosphate and substituted pyrophosphate groups 3' adjacent to the oxoG. Using crosslinking, we revealed the phosphate groups, 3' and 5' adjacent to the lesion, which have specific contacts with nucleophilic amino acids from the E. coli Fpg protein active center. The crosslinking efficiency achieved 30%. The approaches developed can be employed in the studies of pro- and eucaryotic homologs of the E. coli Fpg protein as well as other repair enzymes.

Abstract
The type II restriction endonuclease SsoII shows sequence similarity with 10 other restriction endonucleases, among them the type IIE restriction endonuclease EcoRII, which requires binding to an effector site for efficient DNA cleavage, and the type IIF restriction endonuclease NgoMIV, which is active as a homotetramer and cleaves DNA with two recognition sites in a concerted reaction. We show here that SsoII is an orthodox type II enzyme, which is active as a homodimer and does not require activation by binding to an effector site. Nevertheless, it shares with EcoRII and NgoMIV a very similar DNA-binding site and catalytic center as shown here by a mutational analysis, indicative of an evolutionary relationship between these three enzymes. We suggest that a similar relationship exists between other orthodox type II, type IIE, and type IIF restriction endonucleases. This may explain why similarities may be more pronounced between members of different subtypes of restriction enzymes than among the members of a given subtype.

Abstract
Novel modified DNA duplexes with single bridging 5'-SS-monophosphoryldithio links [-OP(=O)-O(-)-SS-CH(2)-] were synthesized by autoligation of an oligonucleotide 3'-phosphorothioate and a 5'-mercapto-oligonucleotide previously converted to a 2-pyridyldisulfide adduct. Monophosphoryldisulfide link formation is not a stringent template-dependent process under the conditions used and does not require strong binding of the reactive oligomers to the complementary strand. The modified internucleotide linkage, resembling the natural phosphodiester bond in size and charge density, is stable in water, easily undergoes thiol-disulfide exchange and can be specifically cleaved by the action of reducing reagents. DNA molecules containing an internal -OP(=O)-O(-)-SS-CH(2)- bridge are stable to spontaneous exchange of disulfide-linked fragments (recombination) even in the single-stranded state and are promising reagents for autocrosslinking with cysteine-containing proteins. The chemical and supramolecular properties of oligonucleotides with 5'-sulfhydryl groups were further characterized. We have shown that under the conditions of chemical ligation the 5'-SH group of the oligonucleotide has a higher reactivity towards N-hydroxybenzotriazole-activated phosphate in an adjacent oligonucleotide than does the OH group. This autoligation, unlike disulfide bond formation, proceeds only in the presence of template oligonucleotide, necessary to provide the activated phosphate in close proximity to the SH-, OH- or phosphate function.

Abstract
A target sequence-specific DNA binding region of the restriction endonuclease Sso II was identified by photocross-linking with an oligodeoxynucleotide duplex which was substituted with 5-iododeoxy-uridine (5-IdU) at the central position of the Sso II recognition site (CCNGG). For this purpose the Sso II-DNA complex was irradiated with a helium/cadmium laser (325 nm). The cross-linking yield obtained was approximately 50%. In the presence of excess unmodified oligodeoxynucleotide or with oligode-oxynucleotides substituted with 5-IdU elsewhere, no cross-linking was observed, indicating the specificity of the cross-linking reaction. The cross-linked Sso II-oligodeoxynucleotide complex was digested with chymotrypsin, a cross-linked peptide-oligodeoxy-nucleotide complex isolated and the site of cross-linking identified by Edman sequencing to be Trp61. In line with this identification is the finding that the W61A variant cannot be cross-linked with the IdU-substituted oligodeoxynucleotide, shows a decrease in affinity towards DNA and is inactive in cleavage. It is concluded that the region around Trp61 is involved in specific binding of Sso II to its DNA substrate.

Abstract
Convenient approaches were described to incorporate -OP(=O)O(-)-SS-O(-)(O=)PO- bridges in hairpin-shaped DNA duplexes instead of regular phosphodiester linkages: (i) H2O2- or 2,2'-dipyridyldisulfide-mediated coupling of 3'- and 5'-thiophosphorylated oligonucleotides on complementary template and (ii) more selective template-guided autoligation of a preactivated oligonucleotide derivative with an oligomer carrying a terminal thiophosphoryl group. Dithiothreitol was found to cleave completely modified internucleotide linkage releasing starting oligonucleotides. The presence of complementary template as an intrinsic element of the molecule protects the hairpin DNA analog from spontaneous exchange of disulfide-linked oligomer fragments and makes it a good candidate for auto-crosslinking with cysteine-containing proteins.

The method of protein affinity modification by DNA analogues was used to study the characteristic features of restriction endonuclease MvaI interaction with DNA. Oligonucleotide duplexes containing a monosubstituted pyrophosphate internucleotide bond were used for cross-linking to the enzyme. The conditions of the reaction of MvaI endonuclease with these reagents were investigated. On the basis of data obtained, the model of successive inclusion of two Mg2+ ions into MvaI endonuclease-substrate complex was proposed and confirmed by the kinetic scheme of the process.

Abstract
DNA duplex and dumbbells containing chemically active acylphosphate internucleotide groups were synthesized. To obtain these compounds the chemical ligation method was used. The acylphosphate group was inserted into a DNA duplex and dumbbells as a result of template-directed condensation of 5'-phosphate and especially introduced 3'-carboxy groups of oligonucleotides. 1-Ethyl-3-(3'-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC) was used as a condensing agent. Oligonucleotides containing a carboxy group were obtained by the interaction of their 3'-phosphate with glycine methyl ester under the action of EDC, followed by ester hydrolysis. The yields of acylphosphate-containing double-stranded oligonucleotides achieved 15-25% depending on the structure of their precursors. It was shown that these compounds are acylating agents and are efficiently cleaved in near-physiological conditions under the action of ethylenediamine or N-methylimidazole. These results indicate that double-stranded oligonucleotides carrying acylphosphate internucleotide groups could constitute new crosslinking reagents for affinity modification of DNA recognizing proteins.

Abstract
To create new, effective reagents for affinity modification of restriction-modification (R-M) enzymes, a regioselective method for reactive dialdehyde group incorporation into oligonucleotides, based on insertion of a 1-beta-D-galactopyranosylthymine residue, has been developed. We synthesized DNA duplex analogs of the substrates of the Eco RII and Mva I R-M enzymes that contained a galactose or periodate-oxidized galactose residue as single substituents either in the center of the Eco RII (Mva I) recognition site or in the flanking nucleotide sequence. The dependence of binding, cleavage and methylation of these substrate analogs on the modified sugar location in the duplex was determined. Cross-linking of the reagents to the enzymes under different conditions was examined. M. Eco RII covalent attachment to periodate-oxidized substrate analogs proceeded in a specific way and to a large extent depended on the location of the reactive dialdehyde group in the substrate. The yield of covalent attachment to a DNA duplex with a dialdehyde group in the flanking sequence with Eco RII or Mva I methylases was 9-20% and did not exceed 4% for R. Eco RII.

Abstract
Probing of the HNF1 (hepatocyte nuclear factor I) DNA-binding region using a set of DNA duplexes containing pyrophosphate or O-methyl-substituted pyrophosphate internucleotide groups at different positions of the HNF1 recognition sequence was performed. The histidine-tagged HNF1/1-281 DNA binding domain and nuclear extract from rat liver were used. We showed that HNF1 from these species specifically binds to modified DNA duplexes. A correlation in binding affinity of both types of duplexes was detected. Crosslinking of the HNF1 DNA-binding domain and HNF1 in nuclear liver extract to DNA duplexes carrying O-methyl-substituted pyrophosphate groups was observed. The crosslinking efficiency of HNF1 in liver extract to substituted pyrophosphate-modified DNA duplex, containing a reactive internucleotide group between nucleotides G and T of the GT dinucleotide immediately 5' to the TAAT recognition sequence, amounts to 40% of the efficiency of non-covalent association. Nonspecific crosslinking of the reactive DNA duplexes to other components of nuclear extract was not observed. These results indicate that DNA duplexes carrying substituted pyrophosphate internucleotide groups can specifically bind and crosslink with DNA-binding proteins, especially transcription factors in crude preparations and could constitute a potential tool to control the expression of disease-causing genes.
