[Effect of 8-Br-ATP and 8-Oxy-ATP on RNA synthesis by RNA polymerase from Escherichia coli].

The effect of 8-Br-ATP and 8-oxy-ATP on RNA synthesis on calf thymus DNA and on abortive synthesis of di- and trinucleotides on promoter AI of phage T7 delta DIII DNA in the case of an incomplete set of substrates was studied. It was shown that the ATP analogs used inhibit the RNA and di- and trinucleotide synthesis. In all cases, 8-oxy-ATP was a more effective inhibitor than 8-Br-ATP. Both analogs are incapable of being the primer and they do not replace ATP in the course of abortive initiation of pppApU synthesis.

[Kinetics of inhibition by 8-oxy-GTP and 8-bromo-GTP of Escherichia coli RNA-polymerase synthesis of pppApU dinucleotide on the promotor a1 of phage T7deltaD111 DNA in a limited set of substrates].

Detailed analysis of the kinetics of inhibition of E. coli RNA-polymerase-catalyzed synthesis of dinucleotide pppApU by 8-oxy-GTP and 8-Br-GTP on promoter A1 of the bacteriophage T7 delta D111 with an incomplete set of substrates was carried out. In accordance with the mathematical models obtained, we calculated quantitative parameters of binding of these nucleotide analogs to the centers whose geometry is suitable for incorporation of ATP and UTP. 8-oxy-GTP and 8-Br-GTP compete with ATP for the binding center (their steady-state dissociation constant ratios are 2.1 and 2.4, respectively, whereas the constant for ATP is 0.3 mM) but, unlike ATP, they are not incorporated into the product. 8-oxy-GTP competes also with UTP (its steady-state dissociation constant ratio is 21.6, the constant for UTP is 0.03 mM). 8-Br-GTP does not interact with the binding center of UTP.

[Kinetics of inhibition by 8-oxy-ATP of the dinucleotide pppApU synthesis catalyzed by Escherichia coli RNA-polymerase on the promoter A1 of phage T7 delta D111 DNA during coupled synthesis of di- and trinucleotides and a limited set of substrates].

A kinetic analysis of inhibition of synthesis of dinucleotide pppApU catalyzed by Escherichia coli RNA-polymerase on A1 promoter of the DNA from T7 delta DIII phage mutant by 8-oxy-ATP under the conditions of the coupled synthesis of pppApU and pppApUpC and in the presence of an incomplete set of substrates, namely ATP, UTP, CTP, has been performed. It was found that 8-oxy-ATP is an unproductive analog of both ATP and CTP. A comparative analysis of the dissociation constants shows that 8-oxy-ATP binds at ATP center 3.3. times and at CTP center 540 times weaker than natural substrates. At the UTP center 8-oxy-ATP does not bind at all.

Adenosine Triphosphate

[Parallel DNA].

The group of possible DNA sequences in described by Newton polynominal: (a + t + + g + c)n. It divides into two subgroups with given n: 1) with parallel and 2) with antiparallel type of complementarity. It is argued that increases decreases DNA is not unique, and some models of increases decreases DNA and conjugation of increases increases and increases decreases DNA forms are proposed. The completeness of biological realization of the group is discussed in terms of pK-reduction of its formal diversity.
