The effect of metal binding to the N7 site of purine nucleotides on their structure, energy, and involvement in base pairing
Article Abstract:
Direct binding of hydrated zinc and magnesium group divalent cations to the N7 position of purine nucleotides are investigated by ab initio quantum chemical calculations. The sugar-phosphate backbone provides significant screening of the charge of the metal while the backbone geometry can be affected by the cation.

Tautomeric equilibrium, stability, and hydrogen bonding in 2'-deoxyguanosine monophosphate complexed with [Mg.sup.2}
Article Abstract:
An ab initio calculation results for the interaction of 2'deoxyguanosine monophosphate with the hydrated [Mg.sup.2} cation is presented. The studies provide insight into significant influence of the presence of hydrated [Mg.sup.2} on formation of several hydrogen bonds between hydrated [Mg.sup.2} and guanine and also on pyramidalization of the amino group.
