【 摘 要 】
Partitioning of energy in the interaction of non-intercalating antibiotics (netropsin, netropsin without its cationic ends and two analogs of distamycin A) with different base sequences of B-DNA is studied here by the atom-atom potential technique and geometry optimization procedures. The results show that electrostatic forces contribute substantially to the stabilization energy as well as to the sequence specificity. The hydrogen-bonding term is also sequence specific and is significant in properly orienting the drug molecule. Relative roles of the hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions depend on the dielectric property of the medium.
