Özet

Interactions of echinomycin (Echi) with DNA was studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) with hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). Echinomycin was electrochemically active, yielding several signals. Interaction of Echi with dsDNA attached to a hanging mercury drop electrode resulted in high Echi signals, suggesting a strong binding of Echi to dsDNA by bis-intercalation at the electrode surface. Under the same conditions, interaction of Echi with ssDNA produced almost no Echi signal. This behavior is in agreement with a strong binding of Echi to dsDNA and a very weak binding of Echi to ssDNA observed earlier in solution. Echi, thus, appears to be a good candidate for redox indicator in electrochemical DNA hybridization sensors. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
