| Abstract: | DNAbending is believed to facilitate the initial recognition ofthe mismatched base for repair. The repair efficiencies are dependenton both the mismatch type and neighboring nucleotide sequence. Wehave studied bending of several DNA duplexes containing canonicalmatches: A:T and G:C; various mismatches: A:A, A:C, G:A, G:G, G:T,C:C, C:T, and T:T; and a bis-abasic site: X:X. Free-energy profileswere generated for DNA bending using umbrella sampling. The highestenergetic cost associated with DNA bending is observed for canonicalmatches while bending free energies are lower in the presence of mismatches,with the lowest value for the abasic site. In all of the sequences,DNA duplexes bend toward the major groove with widening of the minorgroove. For homoduplexes, DNA bending is observed to occur via smoothdeformations, whereas for heteroduplexes, kinks are observed at themismatch site during strong bending. In general, pyrimidine:pyrimidinemismatches are the most destabilizing, while purine:purine mismatcheslead to intermediate destabilization, and purine:pyrimidine mismatchesare the least destabilizing. The ease of bending is partially correlatedwith the binding affinity of MutS to the mismatch pairs and subsequentrepair efficiencies, indicating that intrinsic DNA bending propensitiesare a key factor of mismatch recognition.
