Subject Chemistry
 
Description Reaction of [RuIII(EDTA)(CyS)]2− (edta4− = ethylenediaminetetraacetate; CySH = cysteine) with molecular oxygen (O2) has been studied as a function of pH (4.0–8.0) and cysteine concentration (0.2–2.0 mM) at room temperature (25 °C). Biological activities of the [Ru(EDTA)]/CySH/O2 system pertaining to cleavage of supercoiled plasmid DNA to its nicked open circular form has been explored in this work. Results are discussed in regard to the reaction of the ruthenium(III)-complex with molecular oxygen) and a working mechanism is proposed for the biological activities of the ruthenium(III)-complex in the presence of O2.
