Popis: | Ab initio calculations (Hartree-Fock) using the 3–21G and the STO-3G Gaussian basis sets were performed on synthetic analogues of the minor groove binding bis-benzimidazole Hoechst 33258 designed to exhibit altered sequence recognition. Geometry optimized conformations, energies and distribution of electrostatic charges within the molecule were derived. The binding of the optimized conformations of the drug to both alternating and non-alternating (AT)n and (GC)n sequences were studied. |
