Abstract

In this work, we investigated the binding of a series of dimeric aminoglycoside molecules to (i) a 27 nt A-site 16S rRNA construct, and (ii) an artificially grafted 46 nt 'dimerized' A-site 16S rRNA construct. It was observed that the dissociation constants of dimeric aminoglycosides to the dimerized A-site 16S rRNA construct can achieve up to approximately 19-fold enhancement compared to the monomeric aminoglycoside molecules.
