Popis: The spatial structure of an intercalated complex of the synthetic phenoxazone antibiotic actinocyl-bis-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)amide (ActII) and the self-complementary deoxytetranucleotide 5′-d(TpGpCpA) was studied using two-dimensional NMR (2D-NOESY) spectroscopy of the complex in an aqueous solution and molecular mechanics simulation. Distinctive features of the conformation of ActII-DNA complexes were determined for two possible orientations of the ActII chromophore at the intercalation site.
