Resumen
La bleomicina activada (ABLM) extrae directamente los átomos de hidrógeno del ADN, un paso clave en su mecanismo de quimioterapia que daña el ADN. Este hallazgo aclara la acción de la bleomicina (BLM) y su papel en la escisión del ADN de doble hebra.
Área de la Ciencia:
- La bioquímica es la bioquímica.
- Biología Química Biología química.
- Biología Molecular Biología Molecular
Sus antecedentes:
- La bleomicina (BLM) es un agente de quimioterapia conocido por causar daño al ADN.
- La bleomicina activada (ABLM), un complejo Fe (III) -OOH, está implicada en la escisión del ADN a través de la abstracción del átomo de hidrógeno.
- El mecanismo preciso del ataque al ADN de ABLM y las especies activas siguen sin estar claros.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para investigar la reactividad de la bleomicina activada (ABLM).
- Para aclarar el mecanismo del ataque inicial de ABLM en el ADN.
- Para determinar la naturaleza de las especies oxidantes activas en el daño al ADN inducido por BLM.
Principales métodos:
- Mediciones cinéticas utilizando espectroscopia de dicroísmo circular para monitorear las reacciones ABLM.
- Estudios del efecto del isótopo de deuterio (kH/kD ≈ 3) para sondear el paso que determina la velocidad.
- Cálculos funcionales de densidad para evaluar las superficies de energía potencial para la abstracción del átomo H.
Principales resultados:
- La evidencia experimental muestra que ABLM se somete a la abstracción de átomos de hidrógeno, acelerada por los donantes de átomos de H.
- El efecto del isótopo cinético indica la participación del átomo de hidrógeno en el paso limitador de velocidad.
- Los cálculos funcionales de densidad apoyan la abstracción directa de átomos de H por ABLM como termodinámica y cinéticamente favorecida sobre la escisión de enlaces O-O.
Conclusiones:
- ABLM extrae directamente los átomos de hidrógeno de la desoxirribosa 4'-H del ADN.
- Esta abstracción del átomo H genera una especie reactiva Fe ((IV) = O, lo que explica la escisión de ADN de doble hebra observada.
- El estudio proporciona una visión mecanicista de la vía de daño del ADN de la bleomicina.

03:37Subatomic Particles
Dalton was only partially correct about the particles that make up matter. All matter is composed of atoms, and atoms are composed of three smaller subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. These three particles account for the mass and the charge of an atom.
03:20Nuclear Transmutation
Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one nuclide into another. It can occur by the radioactive decay of a nucleus, or the reaction of a nucleus with another particle. The first manmade nucleus was produced in Ernest Rutherford’s laboratory in 1919 by a transmutation reaction, the bombardment of one type of nuclei with other nuclei or with neutrons. Rutherford bombarded nitrogen-14 atoms with high-speed α particles from a natural radioactive isotope of radium and observed protons being...
01:09Electron Behavior
Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles attracted to and orbit around the positively-charged nucleus of an atom. They reside in spaces associated with energy levels called shells and are further organized into subshells and orbitals within each shell.
Electrons Orbit the Nucleus
Electrons are found in specific locations outside of the nucleus. The shell in which an electron resides indicates the general energy level of the electron: those closer to the nucleus have less energy,...

01:19Thomson's e/m Experiment
In a beam of charged particles created by a heated cathode, the particles move at different speeds. However, many applications need a beam with uniform particle speeds. An arrangement known as a velocity selector uses electric and magnetic fields to pick particles with a particular speed from the beam.
A particle with charge q, speed v, and mass m enters an area from the top, where the magnetic and electric fields are perpendicular both to the particle's motion and to one another. The magnetic...

01:25Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy: Atomization Methods
Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) atomizes samples through flame atomization or electrothermal atomization. Flame atomization typically involves a nebulizer and spray chamber assembly to combine the sample with a fuel–oxidant mixture, creating a fine aerosol mist that enters a burner. Typically, the fuel and oxidant are combined in an approximately stoichiometric ratio. However, for atoms that are easily oxidized, a fuel-rich mixture may be more advantageous. Only about 5% of the aerosol...
