Computational Molecular Docking, Voltammetric and Spectroscopic DNA Interaction Studies of 9N-(Ferrocenylmethyl)adenine
Abstract
The binding free energy of 9 N -(ferrocenylmethyl)adenine (FMA) with double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was measured in solution using cyclic voltammetry and electronic spectroscopy (UV-Vis) techniques under similar conditions.The obtained results were confirmed by computational molecular docking.The docking studies yield good approximation with experimental data and showed that the ligand FMA is placed in the minor groove of DNA.
