Effects of bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid tetrandrine derivative HL-27 on biological properties of BLM helicase / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the effects of bisbenzyl-isoquinoline alkaloid tetrandrine derivative HL-27 on the biological properties of the BLM642-1290 helicase. Methods Fluorescence polarization technique was used to investigate the effects of bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid tetrandrine derivative HL-27 on the DNA bind-ing activity and unwinding activity of the BLM642-1290 helicase. Malachite green-phosphate ammonium molyb-date colorimetry was used to investigate the effects of HL-27 on the ATPase activity of the BLM642-1290 heli-case. Ultraviolet spectral scanning was used to investi-gate the effects of HL-27 on the conformation of the BLM642-1290 helicase. Results When the concentra-tion of HL-27 reached 33.34 μmol·L-1, the inhibi-tion ratio of dsDNA and ssDNA binding activity of the BLM642-1290 helicase was 41.35% and 59.54% , re-spectively. When the concentration of HL-27 reached 50 μmol·L-1, the inhibition ratio of DNA unwinding activity of the BLM642-1290 helicase was 78.68% . When the concentration of HL-27 reached 100 μmol· L-1, the inhibition ratio of ATPase activity of the BLM642-1290 helicase was 43.8% . Conclusion The DNA binding activity, ATPase activity and unwinding activity of the BLM642-1290 helicase can be inhibited by bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid tetrandrine derivative HL-27.
