    Abstract A new bis cyclometallated Ir(III) phosphor, [Ir(ppy) 2 L]PF 6 (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine, L = 4,4′-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-6,6′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine was prepared and structurally characterized in the solid state (X-ray diffraction) and solution (1 and 2D NMR spectroscopy). The compound exhibited yellow photoluminescence (λ em = 562 nm). The quantum yield Φ was solvent-dependent (5% in acetonitrile and 19% in dichloromethane solutions, respectively).

    Abstract A novel heteroleptic Ag(I) compound, formulated as [AgL(PPh 3 )]BF 4 (1) (where L represents 2,9-bis((E)-4-methoxystyryl)-1,10-phenanthroline and PPh 3 stands for triphenylphosphine), was successfully synthesized and thoroughly characterized. The compound’s stability in solution was confirmed through 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The photo-irradiation of the complex in a CDCl 3 solution, utilizing a common portable UV lamp emitting at λ = 365 nm, led to the partial transformation of the E,E-geometric isomer to E,Z, ultimately yielding a 1:1.4 molar ratio of isomers. Its molecular structure was determined via X-ray crystallography, while molecular packing was assessed using Hirshfeld calculations. The most notable interactions (51%) within the cationic inner sphere involved H···H bonds. The photophysical characteristics of the complex and L were evaluated both in the solid state and in solution (dichloromethane). Compound 1 is a weak emitter, with photoluminescence quantum yields of 8.6% and 4.3% in solution and the solid state, respectively.

    Abstract Tau hyperphosphorylation plays a key role in Alzheimer's disease, mediating tau protein aggregation and deposition as neurofibrillary tangles in the intracellular space of neurons. The potential implications of Cu(II) ions on the disease have been studied intensively, focusing both on Cu(II)-amyloid and on Cu(II)-tau fragment interactions. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of information concerning the metal binding properties and the affinity of phosphorylated fragments of tau. In this work, the coordination properties of Cu(II) ions toward the peptides Ac-GSTENLKH-NH

    Abstract In the present study we used the plasmid relaxation assay, a very sensitive method for detection of DNA strand breaks in vitro, in order to evaluate the role of peptide fragments of histone H2B in DNA strand breakage induced by copper and nickel. We have found that in the presence of peptides modeling the histone fold domain (H2B(32-62) and H2B(63-93)) as well as the N-terminal tail (H2B(1-31)) of histone H2B there is an increased DNA damage by Cu(2+)/H(2)O(2) and Ni(2+)/H(2)O(2) reaction mixtures. On the contrary, the C-terminal tail (H2B(94-125)) seems to have a protective role on the attack of ROS species to DNA. We have rendered our findings to the interactions of the peptides with DNA, as well as with the metal.

    Abstract: In an attempt to investigate the role of histone H2B in Cu(II) induced toxicity and carcinogenesis, we synthesized the terminally blocked peptides H2B(32-62) (SRKESYSVYVYKVLKQVH(48)PDTGISSKAMGIM) and Η2Β(94-125) (IQTAVRLLLPGELAKH(110)AVSEGTKAVTKYTSS), ... ...

    Abstract In an attempt to investigate the role of histone H2B in Cu(II) induced toxicity and carcinogenesis, we synthesized the terminally blocked peptides H2B(32-62) (SRKESYSVYVYKVLKQVH(48)PDTGISSKAMGIM) and Η2Β(94-125) (IQTAVRLLLPGELAKH(110)AVSEGTKAVTKYTSS), mimicking the N-terminal histone-fold domain and C-terminal tail of histone H2B, respectively and studied their interaction with Cu(II) ions by means of potentiometric titrations and spectroscopic techniques (UV-visible, CD and EPR). Both peptides, H2B(32-62) and H2B(94-125), interacted efficiently with Cu(II) ions, forming several species from pH 4 to 11, with His(48) and His(110) serving as anchors for metal binding. In H2B(32-62), the effective Cu(II) binding is emphasized by the formation of a soluble Cu(II)-H2B(32-62) complex, unlike the unbound peptide that precipitated over pH 7.9. At physiological pH, both peptides form tetragonal 3N species with a {N(Im), 2N(-)} coordination mode. At this pH, H2B(32-62) presented the formation of coordination isomers, differentiated by the presence in one of them, of an axial coordination of the carboxylate group of Asp(50). Copper binding with both H2B(32-62) and H2B(94-125) may induce a conformational change in the peptides' original structure. At physiological conditions, this effect may interfere with nucleosome's structure and dynamics, including the ubiquitination of Lys(120) which is linked to gene silencing.

    Abstract The interaction of Cu(2+) and Ni(2+) with the N-terminal tail of histone H2B, the 31 amino acid peptide H2B(1-31) (Ac-PEPAKSAPAPKKG(13)SKKAVTKAQKKD(25)GKKRKR-NH(2)), studied by various spectroscopic techniques (UV/Vis, CD, EPR and NMR) are described. The results showed the formation of Cu(2+)-H2B(1-31) complexes above pH 7.3 most probably through the beta-carboxylate group of D25. With the increase of the pH, a mixture of 3 N and 4 N species presenting {2N(-), CO, epsilonNH(2)} and {2N(-), OH(2), epsilonNH(2)}{epsilonNH(2)} coordination modes, respectively is formed, while at highly basic solutions the binding of an additional amide donor is suggested. NMR spectroscopy supported by CD spectroscopy indicated that Ni(2+) coordination takes place most likely through Q22-K23-K24-D25 peptide fragment. Direct coordination to Ni(2+), in a {4N(-)} coordination mode, with a severe conformation change in all residues from G13 to G26 was observed. Cu(2+) and Ni(2+) binding to the N-terminal tail of H2B causes a severe conformational change that might interfere with histone post-translational modifications, possibly leading to epigenetic changes.

    Abstract The interaction of the enantiomeric complexes Lambda- and Delta-[Ru(bpy)(2)(pbmz)](PF(6))(2) (bpy=2,2'-bipyridine, pbmz=2-(2'-pyridyl)benzimidazole) with the DNA duplex d(CGCGAATTCGCG)(2) was investigated by means of 2D NMR techniques. The synthesis of the enantiomers was based on the optically pure complexes Lambda- and Delta-[Ru(bpy)(2)(py)(2)](2+) and were characterized by CD and NMR spectroscopy. NMR data indicate that both enantiomers bind weakly to the oligonucleotide, approaching from the minor groove at the centre of the helix. The perturbation of the B-DNA conformation is minor with an apparent absence of enantioselectivity. Molecular modelling calculations in conjunction with the NOE data support the suggestion that more than one binding modes are present. The imidazole amine group of the pbmz ligand is probably hydrogen bonded to the DNA phosphodiesteric backbone at the AATT step, and this may provide an explanation for the diminished enantioselectivity observed.
