| Description |
The interaction of the phenazinium dye janus green blue (JGB) with deoxyribonucleic acid was investigated using isothermal titration calorimetry and thermal melting experiments. The calorimetric data were supplemented by spectroscopic studies. Calorimetry results suggested the binding affinity of the dye to DNA to be of the order of 105 M-1. The binding was predominantly entropy driven with a small negative favorable enthalpy contribution to the standard molar Gibbs energy change.The binding became weaker as the temperature and salt concentration was raised. The temperature dependence of the standard molar enthalpy changes yielded negative values of standard molar heat capacity change for the complexation revealing substantial hydrophobic contribution in the DNA binding. An enthalpy–entropy compensation behavior was also observed in the system. The salt dependence of the binding yielded the release of 0.69 number of cations on binding of each dye molecule. The non-polyelectrolytic contribution was found to be the predominant force in the binding interaction. Thermal melting studies revealed that the DNA helix was stabilized against denaturation by the dye. The binding was also characterized by absorbance, resonance light scattering and circular dichroism spectral measurements. The binding constants from the spectral results were close to those obtained from the calorimetric data. The energetic aspects of the interaction of the dye JGB to double stranded DNA are supported by strong binding revealed from the spectral data.
