TAUTOMERIZATION IN BIOMOLECULES as Investigated by Quantum Chemistry and Molecular Dynamics: Cytosine and Cytidine Géza Fogarasi, Institute of Chemistry, Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, H-1518, Pf. 32. Motivation Intramolecular proton transfer (tautomerism) is a ubiquitous phenomenon both in chemistry and biology. In DNA, tautomerization of the nucleotide bases is one of the possible mechanisms of mutation [1].. Scheme 1. Three tautomers of cytosine, with two rotamers indicated. _____________________________________________________________________ [1] J.D. Watson and F.H.C. Crick, Nature 171, (1953). [2] G.

Three H-bonded dimers derived from 1.  : E(TS) = 6.3 kcal/mol  : E(TS) = 4.90 kcal/mol  : E(TS) = 7.7 kcal/mol Introduction Crystalline cytosine contains only the keto form, while a mixture of various isomers may exist in the vapor state, suggested both by spectroscopy and by quantum chemistry (QC), see Scheme 1. The intriguing question is the mechanism: how do tautomers form under given experimental circumstances? Procedure [3] 1. Start geometry not too far from equilibrium 2. The atomic nuclei get a random kick such that the average kinetic energy corresponds to a selected temperature. 3. Energy and FORCES calculated from ab initio Quantum Chemistry ‘on the fly’ 4. Movement of atoms calculated classically 5. GOTO 3 Figure 2 Tautomerization from H-bonded dimer 1:1 to 3a:2b t/fs t/fs Isolated bases have prohibitively high transition state (TS) energies of kcal/mol, shown by numerous QC calculations. However, traces of water may play a crucial role as water reduces the barrier by about a half [2]. In addition, the interesting possibility of bimolecular tautomerization through H-bonded dimers has been suggested [3,4]. The focus of the present study will be on this latter question. Philosophy: The notion of reaction mechanisms is based on the Born-Oppenheimer (B-O) approximation: atoms move on a potential energy surface (PES) defined by the electronic energy as a function of nuclear positions. In the simplest models reactions follow the minimum energy pathway (MEP), going through a transition state (TS). The MEP expressed in mass-weighted Cartesians is referred to as the internal reaction coordinate, IRC. However: computations have shown that reactions may follow a route totally different from the IRC [4,5]. True dynamics calculations require knowledge of the complete PES, and recent methods generate it "on the fly". In contrast to "propagation" of the Car-Parrinello method, in B-O dynamics the wave function is fully optimized in each step along the trajectory. Energy and first derivatives are determined from an ab initio wf, and atomic movements calculated from them classically. Method: ab initio Born-Oppenheimer dynamics Dynamics Study Computational details The basis set was aug-cc-pVDZ. level using the PQS package [12]. Table 1.
