Popis: The interaction of Zn(II) with nucleotide triphosphates has been studied by /sup 35/Cl NMR and by /sup 1/H NMR. In 0.5 M NaCl solutions, enhanced /sup 35/Cl relaxation is produced by the metal ion in a Zn(II)-nucleotide triphosphate complex, Zn(NTP). In equimolar metal-ligand solutions, the adenosine triphosphate complex, Zn(ATP)/sup 2 -/, produces about twice as much /sup 35/Cl relaxation as do the inosine triphoshate or uridine triphosphate complexes, Zn(ITP)/sup 2 -/ and Zn(UTP)/sup 2 -/. /sup 35/Cl relaxation by the cytidine triphosphate complex, Zn(CTP)/sup 2 -/, is intermediate. In each case, the enhanced /sup 35/Cl relaxation found, relative to the Zn/sup 2 +/(aq) value, is removed by interaction with excess nucleotide. In the presence of excess Zn(II) ions, purine nucleotides form complexes which have high /sup 35/Cl molar relaxivity metal ion environments. These observations are discussed in terms of possible structures which could lead to such relaxation environments.
