The structure of CC-1065, a potent antitumor agent and its binding to DNA

The crystal and molecular structure of a potent antitumor agent, CC-1065 (C sub(35)H sub(33)N sub(7)O sub(8)), has been determined, and circular dichoism studies have demonstrated a strong interaction between CC-1065 and DNA. The interaction between CC-1065 and a number of DNA polymers was studied b...

Description
Summary:The crystal and molecular structure of a potent antitumor agent, CC-1065 (C sub(35)H sub(33)N sub(7)O sub(8)), has been determined, and circular dichoism studies have demonstrated a strong interaction between CC-1065 and DNA. The interaction between CC-1065 and a number of DNA polymers was studied by circular dichroism. The CD effect requires double-stranded DNA and is strongest with poly(dA-dT):poly(dA-dT).
