Ecteinascidin 743 (Et 743), a natural product derived from a marine tunicate, is a potent antitumor agent presently in phase II clinical trials. Et 743 binds in the minor groove of DNA and alkylates N2 of guanine via a unique mechanism involving catalytic activation. The sequence selectivity of Et 743 is governed by different patterns of hydrogen-bonding to DNA, which results in differential reversibility of the covalent adducts. As determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the preferred sequences 5'-PuGC and 5'-PyGG are stabilized by a hydrogen-bonding network, while the non-preferred sequences 5'-NG(A/T) are much less stabilized due to the lack of a key hydrogen bond to the GC base pair on the 3'-side of the alkylated guanine.

pubmed:articleTitle |
The inefficiency of incisions of ecteinascidin 743-DNA adducts by the UvrABC nuclease and the unique structural feature of the DNA adducts can be used to explain the repair-dependent toxicities of this antitumor agent.
