Circular dichroism of nucleic acids. Part 2. Polymers

Abstrakty
The review presents the theoretical basis for interpretations of CD spectra of polynucleotides. A simplified version of quantum theory of circular dichroism of a polynucleotide by Tinoco and Johnson is presented in details. It is generally assumed that the optical activity of these polymers is dominated by interactions between dipoles of in-plane transitions occuring at neighbouring bases. The interaction of dipoles coming from different bases strictly depends on geometrical arrangement of bases within the helix. As a result information about geometry of the helix can be inferred from the CD spectra. The circular dichroism caused by the disturbance of the electronic system of a base by the presence of a sugar ring is usually omitted in calculations. Such a theoretical approach allows to understand differences between CD spectra of random DNA and RNA. The distance of a base pair from helix axis appeared to be the main factor responsible for these differences]. The approach fails in a case of polymers of non-random sequences, for example containing a repetitive motif of two bases. It is exemplified for the d(CG)n oligomers forming left-handed double helix called Z-DNA, where none of the theoretical calculations is able to predict the inversion of a CD spectrum characteristic for the Z form .
