2 DNA structure summary 1 1. W & C (1953) modeled average DNA (independent of sequence) as an: anti-parallel, right-handed, double helix with H-bonded base pairs on the inside and the sugar-phosphate backbone on the outside. 2. Each chain runs 5 to 3 (by convention). Profound implications: complementary strands suggested mechanisms of replication, heredity and recognition. Missing Structural variation in DNA as a function of sequence Tools to manipulate and analyze DNA (basis for biotechnology, sequencing, genome analysis) DNA schematic (no chemistry) 1. Nucleotide = sugar-phosphate + base 2. DNA strands are directional 3. Duplex strands are antiparallel and complementary. Backbone outside; H-bonded bases stacked inside. 4. The strands form a double helix 2
3 Nucleic-acid building blocks nucleoside glycosidic bond nucleotide Geometry of DNA bases and base pairs! C G T A H-bonds satisfied Similar width Similar angle to glycosidic bonds Pseudo-symmetry of 180 rotation 3
4 Major groove and minor groove definitions Major groove Major groove Opposite the glycosydic bonds Minor groove Minor groove Subtended by the glycosydic bonds Comparison of B DNA and A DNA (formed at different humidity) Bps near helix axis Bps off helix axis Å Major groove (winds around) Minor groove (winds around) bp/turn Base tilt Major groove Minor groove P-P distance 10 small wide Narrow 6.9 Å narrow & deep wide & shallow 5.9 Å 4
5 Average structure of dsrna (like A DNA) 3 side view Bases tilted 5 5 Minor groove shallow and wide Major groove deep and narrow (distortions needed for proteins to contact bases) 3 End view Twist/bp ~32.7 ~11 bp/turn DNA structure and stability DNA structure varies with sequence 1. Dickerson dodecamer crystal structure 2. Twist, roll, propeller twist and displacement 3. Variation in B-DNA and A-DNA Proteins recognize variations in DNA structure DNA stability Depends on sequence & conditions Forces that stabilize DNA: H-bonds, stacking, and interactions with ions and water 5
6 Crystal structure of the Dickerson dodecamer Experiment Synthesize and purify 12-mer: d(cgcgaattcgcg) = sequence Crystallize Shine X-ray beam through crystal from all angles Record X-ray scattering patterns Calculate electron density distribution Build model into e - density and optimize fit to predict the data Display and analyze model Results B-DNA!! The structure was not a straight regular rod. There were sequence-dependent variations (that could be read out by proteins). Two views of the Dickerson dodecamer 1. Double helix: Anti-parallel strands, bps stacked in the middle 2. Not straight (19 bend/12 bp, 112 Å radius of curvature) 3. Core GAATTC: B-like with 9.8 bp/turn 4. Flanking CGCG more complex, but P-P distance = 6.7 Å (like B) 5. Bps not flat. Propeller twist 11 for GC and 17 for AT 6. Hydration: water, water everywhere on the outside (not shown). 6
7 Nomenclature for helical parameters Propeller twist: dihedral angle of base planes. Displacement: distance from helix axis to bp center Slide: Translation along the C6-C8 line Twist: relative rotation around helix axis Roll: rotation angle of mean bp plane around C6-C8 line Tilt: rotation of bp plane around pseudo-dyad perpendicular to twist and roll axes Slide Propeller twist, roll and slide No roll or propeller twist Slide = -1 Å to avoid clash * 20 propeller twist Or roll = 20 and slide = + 2Å to promote cross-chain purine stacking 7
8 Slide and helical twist Slide = translation along the long (C6-C8) axis of the base pair Regular DNA variations B-like A-like 8

11 Different patterns of H-bond donors and acceptors bases in different base pairs (gray) Major groove side (w) Most differences in H-bond donors and acceptors occur in the major groove! Sequence-specific recognition uses major-groove contacts.

16 What cause bases to flip out? Thermal fluctuations Fluctuations include denaturation Native Denatured + T m = 50/50 native/denatured T 16
17 Tm depends on? Tm depends on? DNA Length Base composition DNA Sequence Salt concentration Hydrophobic and charged solutes Bound proteins Supercoiling density 17
18 Length dependence of DNA stability Fraction denatured No further increase > ~50 base pairs Temperature C Tm depends on G+C content Why? 18
19 Tm depends on G+C content Why? GC bps contain 3 H-bonds and stack better. Calculated base stacking energies GC best AT worst 19
20 Tm depends on ionic strength High KCl stabilizes duplex DNA Why? Other conditions that change Tm Mg 2+ ions Stabilize (why?) Polyamines: spermidine and spermine NH 3 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -NH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -NH 3 } NH 3 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -NH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -CH 2 -NH 2 -CH 2 CH 2 -CH 2 -NH DMSO formamide H 3 C CH 3 HC NH 2 C O O } Destabilize (why?) 20
21 Duplex stability depends on length (to a point) and base composition (GC content) Two formulas for oligonucleotide Tm 1. Tm = (# of A+T) x 2 + (# of G+C) x 4 2. Tm= x ((yg+zc-16.4)/ (wa+xt+yg+zc)) where w, x, y, z are the numbers of the respective nucleotides. Summary 1. DNA structure varies with sequence. 2. Propeller twist, helix twist, roll, slide, and displacement (local features) vary in each base step. 3. These differences alter the positions of interacting groups relative to ideal DNA. 4. Structural adjustments maximize stacking. 5. Proteins can read out base sequence directly and indirectly (e.g. H 2 O, PO 4 positions, structure and motions). 6. Proteins can trap transient structures of DNA. 7. Duplex stability varies with sequence, G+C > A+T 8. High salt, Mg 2+, polyamines increase duplex stability. 9. DMSO and formamide decrease duplex stability. 10. Stability increases with oligonucleotide length up to a point. 21
