- W4310601875 abstract "Phosphate···π, also called anion···π, contacts occur between nucleobases and anionic phosphate oxygens (OP2) in r(GNRA) and r(UNNN) U-turn motifs (N = A,G,C,U; R = A,G). These contacts were investigated using state-of-the-art quantum-chemical methods (QM) to characterize their physicochemical properties and to serve as a reference to evaluate AMBER force field (AFF) performance. We found that phosphate···π interaction energies calculated with the AFF for dimethyl phosphate···nucleobase model systems are less stabilizing in comparison with double-hybrid DFT and that minimum contact distances are larger for all nucleobases. These distance stretches are also observed in large-scale AFF vs QM/MM computations and classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on several r(gcGNRAgc) tetraloop hairpins when compared to experimental data extracted from X-ray/cryo-EM structures (res. ≤ 2.5 Å) using the WebFR3D bioinformatic tool. MD simulations further revealed shifted OP2/nucleobase positions. We propose that discrepancies between the QM and AFF result from a combination of missing polarization in the AFF combined with too large AFF Lennard-Jones (LJ) radii of nucleobase carbon atoms in addition to an exaggerated short-range repulsion of the r-12 LJ repulsive term. We compared these results with earlier data gathered on lone pair···π contacts in CpG Z-steps occurring in r(UNCG) tetraloops. In both instances, charge transfer calculations do not support any significant n → π* donation effects. We also investigated thiophosphate···π contacts that showed reduced stabilizing interaction energies when compared to phosphate···π contacts. Thus, we challenge suggestions that the experimentally observed enhanced thermodynamic stability of phosphorothioated r(GNRA) tetraloops can be explained by larger London dispersion." @default.
