Double-stranded DNA bears the highest linear negative charge density (2e- per base-pair) among all biopolymers, leading to strong interactions with cations and dipolar water, resulting in the formation of a dense 'condensation layer' around DNA. Interactions involving proteins and ligands binding to DNA are primarily governed by strong electrostatic forces. Increased salt concentrations impede such electrostatic interactions - a situation that prevails in oceanic species due to their cytoplasm being enriched with salts. Nevertheless, how these interactions' dynamics are affected in crowded hypersaline environments remains largely unexplored. Here, we employ steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence Stokes shifts (TRFSS) of a DNA-bound ligand (DAPI) to investigate the static and dynamic solvation properties of DNA in the presence of two divalent cations, magnesium (Mg2+), and calcium (Ca2+) at varying high to very-high concentrations of 0.15 M, 1 M and 2 M. We compare the results to those obtained in physiological concentrations (0.15 M) of monovalent Na+ ions. Combining data from fluorescence femtosecond optical gating (FOG) and time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) techniques, dynamic fluorescence Stokes shifts in DNA are analysed over a broad range of time-scales, from 100 fs to 10 ns. We find that while divalent cation crowding strongly influences the DNA stability and ligand binding affinity to DNA, the dynamics of DNA solvation remain remarkably similar across a broad range of five decades in time, even in a high-salinity crowded environment with divalent cations, as compared to the physiological concentration of the Na+ ion. Steady-state and time-resolved data of the DNA-groove-bound ligand are seemingly unaffected by ion-crowding in hypersaline solution, possibly due to ions being mostly displaced by the DNA-bound ligand. Furthermore, the dynamic coupling of cations with nearby water may possibly contribute to a net-neutral effect on the overall collective solvation dynamics in DNA, owing to the strong anti-correlation of their electrostatic interaction energy fluctuations. Such dynamic scenarios may persist within the cellular environment of marine life and other biological cells that experience hypersaline conditions.
