利用从蚕沙中提取的叶绿素(CHL)制得了锌叶绿素(Zn-CHL)配合物.采用紫外-可见光谱、CD光谱和黏度法研究了Zn-CHL与小牛胸腺DNA(ct-DNA)的相互作用,并采用琼脂糖凝胶电泳研究了光照条件下Zn-CHL对pBR322 DNA的切割能力.结果表明,Zn-CHL与ct-DNA的作用方式属于外部结合模式,其结合常数为2.32×105L/mol,Zn-CHL在可见光照射下具有切割DNA的能力.
Zinc chlorophyll(Zn-CHL) complex was prepared using chlorophyll extacted from silkworm faeces.Relative viscosity,UV-Visible and CD spectra were used to study the interaction between Zn-CHL and ct-DNA.Agarose gel electrophoresis was also carried out to investigate the photocleavage ability of Zn-CHL to pBR 322 DNA.The results suggested that the binding mode of Zn-CHL and ct-DNA was outside binding,the binding constant was 2.32×105 L/mol.Agarose gel electrophoresis picture showed that Zn-CHL could induce DNA cleavage upon irradiation.
