[PMID: 38350449 PMCID: PMC11309967 DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2024.01.034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
With the great progress on determining protein structures over the last decade comes a renewed appreciation that structures must be combined with dynamics and energetics to understand function. Fluorescence spectroscopy, specifically Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), provides a great window into dynamics and energetics due to its application at physiological temperatures and ability to measure dynamics on the ångström scale. We have recently advanced transition metal FRET (tmFRET) to study allosteric regulation of maltose binding protein and have reported measurements of maltose-dependent distance changes with an accuracy of ∼1.5 Å. When paired with the noncanonical amino acid Acd as a donor, our previous tmFRET acceptors were useful over a working distance of 10 to 20 Å. Here, we use cysteine-reactive bipyridyl and phenanthroline compounds as chelators for Fe2+ and Ru2+ to produce novel tmFRET acceptors to expand the working distance to as long as 50 Å, while preserving our ability to resolve even small maltose-dependent changes in distance. We compare our measured FRET efficiencies to predictions based on models using rotameric ensembles of the donors and acceptors to demonstrate that steady-state measurements of tmFRET with our new probes have unprecedented ability to measure conformational rearrangements under physiological conditions.

Unprecedented enantio-selective live-cell mitochondrial DNA super-resolution imaging and photo-sensitizing by the chiral ruthenium polypyridyl DNA "light-switch". Nucleic Acids Res 2023; 51:11981-11998. [PMID: 37933856 PMCID: PMC10711558 DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkad799] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2022] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is known to play a critical role in cellular functions. However, the fluorescent probe enantio-selectively targeting live-cell mtDNA is rare. We recently found that the well-known DNA 'light-switch' [Ru(phen)2dppz]Cl2 can image nuclear DNA in live-cells with chlorophenolic counter-anions via forming lipophilic ion-pairing complex. Interestingly, after washing with fresh-medium, [Ru(phen)2dppz]Cl2 was found to re-localize from nucleus to mitochondria via ABC transporter proteins. Intriguingly, the two enantiomers of [Ru(phen)2dppz]Cl2 were found to bind enantio-selectively with mtDNA in live-cells not only by super-resolution optical microscopy techniques (SIM, STED), but also by biochemical methods (mitochondrial membrane staining with Tomo20-dronpa). Using [Ru(phen)2dppz]Cl2 as the new mtDNA probe, we further found that each mitochondrion containing 1-8 mtDNA molecules are distributed throughout the entire mitochondrial matrix, and there are more nucleoids near nucleus. More interestingly, we found enantio-selective apoptotic cell death was induced by the two enantiomers by prolonged visible light irradiation, and in-situ self-monitoring apoptosis process can be achieved by using the unique 'photo-triggered nuclear translocation' property of the Ru complex. This is the first report on enantio-selective targeting and super-resolution imaging of live-cell mtDNA by a chiral Ru complex via formation and dissociation of ion-pairing complex with suitable counter-anions.

[PMID: 37146854 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124710] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2023] [Revised: 04/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/07/2023]
Abstract
To further develop new luminescent probes for RNA, a new ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complex [Ru(dmb)2dppz-idzo]2+ (dmb = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine, dppz-idzo = dppz-imidazolone) has been synthesized and characterized in this study. Binding properties of [Ru(dmb)2dppz-idzo]2+ to RNA duplex poly(A) · poly(U) and triplex poly(U) · poly(A) ∗ poly(U) have been explored by spectroscopic techniques and viscometry experiments. The binding modes of [Ru(dmb)2dppz-idzo]2+ to RNA duplex and triplex are intercalation as revealed from spectral titrations and viscosity experiments, while the binding strength of this complex to duplex structure is significantly greater than that of triplex structure. Fluorescence titrations indicate that [Ru(dmb)2dppz-idzo]2+ can act as a molecular "light switch" for both duplex poly(A) · poly(U) and triplex poly(U) · poly(A) ∗ poly(U), while [Ru(dmb)2dppz-idzo]2+ is more sensitive to poly(A) · poly(U) compared to poly(U) · poly(A) ∗ poly(U) and poly(U). Therefore, this complex can distinguish between RNA duplex, triplex and poly(U), and can as luminescent probes for the three RNAs used in this study. In addition, thermal denaturation studies show that [Ru(dmb)2dppz-idzo]2+ is able to significantly increase the Stabilization of RNA duplex and triplex. The results obtained in this study may contribute to further understanding of the binding of Ru(II) complexes with different structural RNAs.

Abstract
To further determine the factors that affect the binding properties of ruthenium(II) polypyridine complexes with RNA duplex and to find excellent RNA-binding agents, the binding properties of ruthenium(II) complexes [Ru(phen)2(7-OCH3-dppz)]2+ (Ru1, phen = 1,10-phenan- throline, 7-OCH3-dppz = 7-methoxy-dipyrido-[3,2-a,2',3'-c]-phenazine) and [Ru(phen)2(7-NO2- dppz)]2+ (Ru2, 7-NO2-dppz = 7-nitro-dipyrido-[3,2-a,2',3'-c]-phenazine) with RNA poly(A)•poly(U) duplex have been investigated by spectroscopic methods and viscosity measurements in this work. The results show that complexes Ru1 and Ru2 bind to poly(A)•poly(U) through intercalation and the binding affinity between Ru2 and poly(A)•poly(U) is greater than that of Ru1. Thermal denaturation experiments suggest that both ruthenium(II) complexes exhibit a significant stabilizing effect on poly(A)•poly(U) duplex. Moreover, fluorescence emission spectra exhibit that, deviating from Ru2, Ru1 exhibits a "light switch" effect for poly(A)•poly(U). This effect can be observed by the naked eye under UV light and adjusted by pH, meaning that Ru1 may act as a reversible pH controlled molecular "light switch". The results obtained in this work will contribute to our understanding of the significant influence of the intercalative ligand substituent effect in the binding process of ruthenium(II) complexes with RNA duplex.

Abstract
Two Ru(II) complexes containing different substituents, [Ru(phen)2(7-CH3-dppz)]2+ (Ru1) and [Ru(phen)2(7-Br-dppz)]2+ (Ru2), have been synthesized in this study. The binding properties of Ru1 and Ru2 with the duplex RNA poly(U)•poly(A) (where "•" denotes the Watson - Crick base pairing) have been researched by biophysical techniques and viscosity measurements. Analysis of spectral titrations and viscosity measurements indicate that Ru1 and Ru2 bind to the duplex via intercalative, and the binding affinity of Ru1 with the duplex is remarkably higher than that of Ru2. Furthermore, fluorescence emission spectra demonstrates that although complexes Ru1 and Ru2 can act as molecular "light switches" for the duplex RNA, alters in fluorescence emission of Ru1 and Ru2 are prominent differences, and the effectiveness of Ru1 is more remarkable compared with that of Ru2. The melting experiments suggest that the duplex RNA stabilizing effects of Ru1 and Ru2 differ from each other, among them, complex Ru1 can obviously enhance the stability of the duplex RNA, while Ru2 has only a slightly stabilizing effect for the duplex RNA, indicating that Ru1 preferentially binds to RNA duplex over Ru2. The obtained results indicate that subtle modifications of the intercalative ligand of Ru(II) polypyridyl complex with either methyl or bromide group have a significant effect on the duplex-binding discrimination.

Abstract
Studies on the binding interaction of small molecules and nucleic acids have been explored for their biological applications. With excellent photophysical/chemical properties, numerous metal complexes have been studied as structural probes for nucleic acids. The recognition of DNA defects is of high importance due to their association with various types of cancers. Small molecules that target DNA defects in a specific and selective manner offer a new avenue for developing novel drugs and diagnostic tools. Transition metal complexes have been studied as probes for abasic sites and DNA/RNA mismatches. By changing the ligand structure or metal center, the probing efficiency of the metal complexes varies towards the defects. In this perspective, we have discussed mainly the structural requirement of metal complexes as probes for abasic sites, mismatches, and covalent DNA adducts, followed by the challenges and future directions.

Abstract
RNA targeting is an exciting frontier for drug design. Intriguing targets include functional RNA structures in structurally-conserved untranslated regions (UTRs) of many lethal viruses. However, computational docking screens, valuable in protein structure targeting, fail for inherently flexible RNA. Herein we harness MD simulations with Markov state modeling to enable nanosize metallo-supramolecular cylinders to explore the dynamic RNA conformational landscape of HIV-1 TAR untranslated region RNA (representative for many viruses) replicating experimental observations. These cylinders are exciting as they have unprecedented nucleic acid binding and are the first supramolecular helicates shown to have anti-viral activity in cellulo: the approach developed in this study provides additional new insight about how such viral UTR structures might be targeted with the cylinder binding into the heart of an RNA-bulge cavity, how that reduces the conformational flexibility of the RNA and molecular details of the insertion mechanism. The approach and understanding developed represents a new roadmap for design of supramolecular drugs to target RNA structural motifs across biology and nucleic acid nanoscience.

Abstract
Arylamines are known to form covalent-DNA adducts upon metabolic activation. These covalent adducts adopt different conformational attributes, viz., major groove (B), stacked (S), and minor groove (W), and lead to different types of mutations. The conformation depends on the flanking and next flanking bases at the 3' position of the adduct. Early detection of these conformations by simple probes is an ideal and challenging task. Here, we have reported two Ir(III)-based cyclometalated complexes, viz., [Ir(ppy)2(imiphen)]+ (1) (ppy: 2-phenylpyridine; imiphen: 2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline) and [Ir(ppy)2(furphen)]+ (2) (furphen: 2-(furan-2-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline) and its interaction with N-acetyl-2-aminofluorene-dG (AAF-dG). The sequences used in this work are NarI sequence (-CG1G2CG3CX-) in which Gs are modified with AAF and X is either C or T. Luminescence studies reveal that the Ir(III) complexes bind to AAF-dG adduct with high specificity toward G1 and G3 compared to G2 and unmodified control. The selectivity also depends on the next flanking base as cytosine favors G3AAF, while thymine favors G1AAF in complex 1 and vice versa for complex 2. The quenching studies confirm that Ir(III) complexes bind with AAF-dG sequences through the minor groove. The outcome of this work reveals that the switch-on effect by the complexes can be utilized for determining the conformational heterogeneity of the adduct and also for similar covalent-DNA adducts.

Abstract
Dynamic tracking of the spatiotemporal coordination among various organelles to in-depth understanding of the mechanism of autophagy have attracted considerable attention. However, the monitor of nucleoli participation in autophagy was somehow neglected. Herein, we report a RNA-targeted bioprobe (ADAP) with high selective permeability into nuclear pore complexes, which induced a two-photon (TP) fluorescence "off-on" response by groove combination with RNA, dynamically monitoring the autophagy process among multiorganelles (nucleoli, mitochondria, and mitochondria-containing lysosomes). This work provides a simple and convenient way to observe the dynamic behavior of multiorganelles during the autophagy process, which benefits the understanding of cellular metabolism.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2019; 212:240-245. [PMID: 30641364 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2018.12.048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2018] [Revised: 12/09/2018] [Accepted: 12/27/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The interaction of [Ru(phen)2dppz-idzo]2+ (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, dppz-idzo = dppz-imidazolone) with triplex RNA poly(U)·poly(A)*poly(U) was carried out by using spectroscopic and viscometric techniques in this work. Luminescent titrations suggest that [Ru(phen)2dppz-idzo]2+ shows better selectivity for poly(U)·poly(A)*poly(U) compared with poly(U)·poly(A) and poly(U), this complex exhibits a "light switch" effect with an emission enhancement factor of about 123 in the presence of poly(U)·poly(A)*poly(U). Significantly, this "light switch" behavior could even be observed by the naked eye under irradiation with UV light. To our knowledge, [Ru(bpy)2dppz-idzo]2+ is the first small molecule able to serve as a colorimetric molecular "light switch" for the triplex poly(U)·poly(A)*poly(U). Combined with the spectral and viscometric results as well as [Ru(phen)2dppz-idzo]2+ stabilizing the template duplex poly(U)·poly(A), we speculate that [Ru(phen)2dppz-idzo]2+ prefers to bind with the Hoogsteen base-paired strand (the third strand) of the triplex, thus the intercalating [Ru(phen)2dppz-idzo]2+ stabilizing the third strand is more marked in comparison with the Watson-Crick base-paired duplex of the triplex. The results obtained here may be useful for understanding the interaction of triplex RNA poly(U)·poly(A)*poly(U) with small molecule, particularly ruthenium(II) complexes.

Abstract
The unique photophysical properties of Ru(ii) polypyridyl complexes make them very attractive candidates as photosensitisers in Photodynamic Therapy (PDT). However, to date, there are not many studies exploring in detail the mechanism(s) of action of such compounds in living systems upon light irradiation. This feature article provides an overview of the most in-depth biological studies on such compounds.

Abstract
Herein we report the in-vivo characterisation and metabolic changes in Galleria mellonella larvae to a series of bis-chelate copper(II) phenanthroline-phenazine cationic complexes of [Cu(phen)2]2+ (Cu-Phen), [Cu(DPQ)(Phen)]2+ (Cu-DPQ-Phen) and [Cu(DPPZ)(Phen)]2+ (Cu-DPPZ-Phen) (where phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, DPQ = dipyrido[3,2-ƒ:2',3'-h]quinoxaline and DPPZ = dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine). Our aim was to investigate the influence of the systematic extension of the ligated phenazine ligand in the G. mellonella model as a first step towards assessing the in-vivo tolerance and mode of action of the complex series with respect to the well-studied oxidative chemical nuclease, Cu-Phen. The Lethal Dose50 (LD50) values were established over dose ranges of 2 - 30 μg at 4-, 24-, 48- and 72 h by mortality assessment, with Cu-Phen eliciting the highest mortality at 4 h (Cu-Phen, 12.62 μg < Cu-DPQ-Phen, 21.53 μg < Cu-DPPZ-Phen, 26.07 μg). At other timepoints, a similar profile was observed as the phenazine π-backbone within the complex scaffold was extended. Assessment of both cellular response and related gene expression demonstrated that the complexes did not initiate an immune response. However, Label-Free Quantification proteomic data indicated the larval response was associated with upregulation of key proteins such as Glutathione S-transferase, purine synthesis and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis (e.g. fructose-bisphosphate aldolase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate). Both Cu-Phen and Cu-DPQ-Phen elicited a similar in-vivo response in contrast to Cu-DPPZ-Phen, which displayed a substantial increase in nitrogen detoxification proteins and proteins with calcium binding sites. Overall, the response of G. mellonella larvae exposure to the complex series is dominated by detoxification and metabolic proteome response mechanisms.

Abstract
Here, we report the delivery of a cell-impermeable [Ru(bpy)2dppz]2+ complex across a cell membrane using a cucurbit[7]uril molecular container. Encapsulation of complex 1 in the cucurbit[7]uril cavity showed an 830-fold enhancement in the luminescence intensity of the non-emissive complex in aqueous solution. This molecular light-switch effect stems from the incorporation of the dppz ligand of 1 inside the CB7 cavity and can be attributed to long range coulombic forces between Ru2+ and the carbonyl portal of CB7 via CHO interactions. This is reflected in the 1H-NMR experiments, and further corroborated by theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Fluorescence microscopy has undergone a dramatic evolution over the past two decades with development of super-resolution far-field microscopy methods that break the light diffraction limited resolution of conventional microscopy, offering unprecedented opportunity to interrogate cellular processes at the nanoscale. However, these methods make special demands of the luminescent agents used for contrast and development of probes suited to super-resolution fluorescent methods is still relatively in its infancy. In spite of their many photophysical advantages, metal complex luminophores have not yet been considered as probes in this regard, where to date, only organic fluorophores have been applied. Here, we report the first examples of metal complex luminophores applied as probes for use in stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy. Exemplified with endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear targeting complexes we demonstrate that luminescent Ru(ii) polypyridyl complexes can, through signal peptide targeting, be precisely and selectively delivered to key cell organelles without the need for membrane permeabilization, to give high quality STED images of these organelles. Detailed features of the tubular ER structure are revealed and in the case of the nuclear targeting probe we exploit the molecular light switch properties of a dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine containing complex which emits only on DNA/RNA binding to give outstanding STED contrast and resolution of the chromosomes within the nucleus. Comparing performance with a member of the AlexaFluor family commonly recommended for STED, we find that the performance of the ruthenium complexes is superior across both CW and gated STED microscopy methods in terms of image resolution and photostability. The large Stokes shifts of the Ru probes permit excellent matching of the stimulating depletion laser with their emission whilst avoiding anti-Stokes excitation. Their long lifetimes make them particularly amenable to gated STED, giving a much wider window for gating than traditional probes. Our findings indicate that ruthenium polypyridyl peptide targeted probes are a powerful new partner to STED microscopy, opening up new approaches to probe design for STED microscopy.

Abstract
An NAD/NADH-functionalized ligand, benzo[b]pyrido[3,2-f][1,7]-phenanthroline (bpp), was newly synthesized. A Ru compound containing the bpp ligand, [Ru(bpp)(bpy)2](2+), underwent 2e(-) and 2H(+) reduction, generating the NADH form of the compound, [Ru(bppHH)(bpy)2](2+), in response to visible light irradiation in CH3CN/TEA/H2O (8/1/1). The UV-vis and fluorescent spectra of both [Ru(bpp)(bpy)2](2+) and [Ru(bppHH)(bpy)2](2+) resembled the spectra of [Ru(bpy)3](2+). Both complexes exhibited strong emission, with quantum yields of 0.086 and 0.031, respectively; values that are much higher than those obtained from the NAD/NADH-functionalized complexes [Ru(pbn)(bpy)2](2+) and [Ru(pbnHH)(bpy)2](2+) (pbn = (2-(2-pyridyl)benzo[b]-1.5-naphthyridine, pbnHH = hydrogenated form of pbn). The reduction potential of the bpp ligand in [Ru(bpp)(bpy)2](2+) (-1.28 V vs SCE) is much more negative than that of the pbn ligand in [Ru(pbn)(bpy)2](2+) (-0.74 V), although the oxidation potentials of bppHH and pbnHH are essentially equal (0.95 V). These results indicate that the electrochemical oxidation of the dihydropyridine moiety in the NADH-type ligand was independent of the π system, including the Ru polypyridyl framework. [Ru(bppHH)(bpy)2](2+) allowed the photoreduction of oxygen, generating H2O2 in 92% yield based on [Ru(bppHH)(bpy)2](2+). H2O2 production took place via singlet oxygen generated by the energy transfer from excited [Ru(bppHH)(bpy)2](2+) to triplet oxygen.

Abstract
Zinc(II) complexes are effective and selective nucleic acid-binders and strongly fluorescent molecules in the low energy range, from the visible to the near infrared. These two properties have often been exploited to quantitatively detect nucleic acids in biological samples, in both in vitro and in vivo models. In particular, the fluorescent emission of several zinc(II) complexes is drastically enhanced or quenched by the binding to nucleic acids and/or upon visible light exposure, in a different fashion in bulk solution and when bound to DNA. The twofold objective of this perspective is (1) to review recent utilisations of zinc(II) complexes as selective fluorescent probes for nucleic acids and (2) to highlight their novel potential applications as diagnostic tools based on their photophysical properties.

Abstract
Ruthenium complexes are currently considered to be among the most promising alternatives to platinum anticancer drugs. In this work, thirteen structural analogues and organelle/receptor-targeting peptide bioconjugates of a cytotoxic bis(dppz)-Ru(II) complex [Ru(dppz)2 (CppH)](PF6 )2 (1) were prepared, characterized, and assessed for their cytotoxicity and cellular localization (CppH=2-(2'-pyridyl)pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid; dppz=dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine). It was observed that structural modifications (lipophilicity, charge, and size-based) result in the cytotoxic potency of 1 being compromised. Confocal microscopy studies revealed that unlike 1, the screened complexes/bioconjugates do not have a preferential accumulation in mitochondria. The results of this important structure-activity relationship strongly support our initial hypothesis that accumulation in mitochondria is crucial for 1 to exert its cytotoxic action.
