CERN, Experimental Physics Department Interaction of Na ions with DNA G-quadruplex structures studied directly with Na beta-NMR spectroscopy biophysics, NMR, DNA studies Biology, DNA studies Magdalena Kowalska kowalska@cern.ch CERN, Experimental Physics Department biophysics, metal-ion studies@ISOLDE chemistry, NMR, G-quadruplex studies

Motivation: DNA G-quadruplexes Formed in guanine-rich DNA fragments Present in telomeres (ends of chromosomes) Present in promoter regions of many oncogenes Synthesised for novel applications Alkali metals in DNA G-quadruplexes Important for their formation, stability and structural polymorphism Until recently considered invisible in conventional Na+/K+ NMR 2 M. Trajkovski et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 134, 4132 (2012)

Alkali ions and G-quadruplexes Techniques used for their studies: solid-state techniques: X-ray crystallography and solid-state NMR, indirect solution NMR methods using spin-1/2 probes, 15NH4+ and 205Tl+ Tightly bound ‘channel’ ions considered ‘invisible’ in solution-NMR low signal intensity and unfavourable quadrupole spin relaxation properties Only recently several direct solution NMR studies published [Won05] => still little known about alkali-metal cation dynamics in this important class of nucleic acid structures Our aim: Investigate Na interaction with G-quadruplexes using beta-detected 26-28Na NMR Primary gain: up to billion-times higher sensitivity than conventional 23Na NMR [Won05] A. Wong, R. Ida, G. Wu, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 337, 363 (2005)

Ultra-sensitivity of beta-NMR From low sensitivity of NMR to 1e10 more sensitive beta-NMR: Small degree of (thermal) polarization -> hyperpolarization; 1e5 gain Inefficient resonance detection -> particle detection; 1e5 gain Hyperpolarization – using optical pumping with lasers Anisotropic emission of beta particles from decay of polarized nuclei  0° Angle between beta-particle emission and direction of spin polarization Velocity of beta-particle (v/c close to 1) Asymmetry factor (-1,1), depends on details of beta decay PI (0-100%): degree of spin polarization

Beta-NMR measurement Same principles as conventional NMR Detection of resonance: Baseline: asymmetry in beta decay in space In resonance with rf: decrease in asymmetry When combined with hyperpolarization => Beta-NMR can be up to 1010 more sensitive than conventional NMR Host material RF-coil b-particle detectors + + + + + + + + recorded with 107 Mg atoms 1 channel = 1 p pulse Probe nuclei Polarizing laser

Experimental setup Commissioned with 26,28Na in autumn 2016 6 Beam neutralisation and Doppler tuning Commissioned with 26,28Na in autumn 2016 M. Kowalska et al., Journal of Physics G, in print (2017) 6

Getting probe nuclei into liquid samples Liquid = no vacuum Emitted b particle 26Na (t1/2 =1.1 s) in vacuum After < 1s Challenges and constraints: Vacuum/liquid interface with little loss in atom beam and polarization at present, differential pumping system with strong pumps, under tests now (4 orders of magnitude pressure difference with 1 pinhole) Binding to biomolecule before decaying -> choose suitable systems to study

Probe nuclei: 26,27,28Na Favourable atomic transition (NaI D2 line at 589 nm) => PI =30-60%, pumping both ground state HFS levels => 30% higher PI ab factors close to 1 beta-NMR resonances easy to observe, even if small fraction of original PI maintained after implantation in liquid sample Very well produced from several targets Q < than Q(stable 23Na) = +100 mbarn weaker quadrupole interaction => longer relaxation time and smaller peak broadening Different t1/2 probing different timescales, e.g. t1/2(28Na) comparable with relaxation time observed G-quadruplex liquid 23Na NMR studies Compatible with present stage of setup: VIS, IR polarization of atoms

Feasibility and goal of studies G-quadruplex interaction with Na+ very suitable for beta-NMR studies: Very strong binding with alkali metals [Ske10] Reaction extremely fast – expected < t1/2 of 26Na, even 28Na, [Ske10] Long enough NMR relaxation times: tens ms reported [Won05, Ida08] NMR chemical shifts of 23Na-NMR in 20 ppm range => can be resolved with our B field homogeneity Goal: determine how and at what time scale Na+ binds to model G-quadruplexes observations at different Na+ and G-quadruplex concentrations => determine dissociation constant of reactions measure relaxation times of observed signals => identify different positions occupied by Na+ Planned liquid hosts: Ionic liquid – verifications at good vacuum, chemical shift calibration Water and NaCl solution – chemical shift references (crown ethers) DNA model G-quadruplex solutions at different concentrations and temperatures E.g. d[TAG3CG3AG3AG3A2] synthesized and well studied by Ljubljana coauthors Chemical shifts (signal at -18 ppm expected, [Won05]) and relaxation times [Ske10] P. Sket and J. Plavec, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 132, 12724 (2010) [Ida08] R. Ida and G. Wu, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 130, 3590 (2008)

Beamtime request Uc, Ta or Ti target, surface ionization, GPS or HRS 15 shifts, (split into 1-2 runs over 1 year): 3 shifts (24 h) to perform preparatory NMR measurements with ionic liquids, with one and two liquids, and at several pressures: 1 shift to see 1st NMR spectrum, 2 shifts to record some 20 spectra 3 shifts (24 h) to record NMR resonances in water and crown ethers, with min 1 spectrum per hour 9 shifts to investigate the G-quadruplex interaction with 26-28Na, again with min 1 spectrum/hour General assumptions 1 shift: establish change-exchange cell and doppler tuning settings => 1st polarization signal and b-NMR resonance 1 h: several NMR resonances in good vacuum, 1 resonance in bad vacuum 1h between different hosts (and conditions) Time for contingency
