Abstract: Recently, polyamides containing N-methylpyrrole have attracted considerable attention from synthetic and biological chemists. Based on Dervan's theory, the polyamide/SerHis conjugate which is a synthetic analogue of natural products for DNA affinity was synthesized through the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide/1-hydroxybenzotriazole(DCC/HOBt) coupling reaction, and its cleavage activity for DNA was also studied. In BR buffer(pH=60), pBR322 DNA can be cleavaged by the title compound at 37 ℃. After 6 h, pBR 322 DNA was transferred from form Ⅰ to form Ⅱ, after 36 h, pBR 322 DNA was cleavaged totally.

Key words: Polyamide/Ser-His conjugate, DNA, Cleavage agen
