Özet
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which leads the biological synthesis of proteins and enzymes in living cells and carries genetic information, is a potential target for binding many molecules such as metals, metal complexes, anticancer drugs, and some harmful chemicals. Molecules that bind to DNA by covalent or non-covalent intercalation, electrostatic interaction, and groove binding cause disruption in the double-stranded DNA structure. This situation is of great importance in studies conducted in the field of pharmacy to increase the effectiveness of antitumor and antiviral drugs, in DNA-based disease diagnosis and determination of toxicity properties of metal complexes. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the interactions of DNA-metal complexes and provide information about their determined biological activities.
