Netropsin is an unusual n-methylpyrrole-containing oligopeptide that binds to AT-rich sequences of dsDNA, especially in the minor groove. Thus, it protects such regions from DNase I and other endonucleases, and also inhibits topoisomerases. Netropsin disrupts the cell cycle, prolonging G and arresting in G.

With a growing understanding of the microstructural variations of DNA, it has become apparent that subtle conformational features are essential for specific DNA molecular recognition and function. DNA containing an A-tract has a narrow minor groove and a globally bent
We use a variety of biophysical techniques to determine thermodynamic profiles, including hydration, for the unfolding of DNA stem-loop motifs (hairpin, a three-way junction and a pseudoknot) and their interaction with netropsin and random cationic copolymers. The unfolding thermodynamic data
The specific DNA binding ligand netropsin selectively blocks dA-dT base pairs in clusters containing two or more consecutive thymine residues at the dNAase I cleavage sites of DNA. Using CD and UV absorption measurements it is shown, that at various

Distamycin A, netropsin and berenil are known to cause undercondensation of heterochromatic regions of metaphase chromosomes. These ligands interfere with DNA curvature by binding to the minor groove of the DNA. Whereas the effects of these ligands upon chromatin structure
Structural results with minor groove binding agents, such as netropsin, have provided detailed, atomic level views of DNA molecular recognition. Solution studies, however, indicate that there is complexity in the binding of minor groove agents to a single site. Netropsin
