Identification of novel interactors of human telomeric G-quadruplex DNA.
A chemoproteomic-driven approach was used to investigate the interaction network between human telomeric G-quadruplex DNA and nuclear proteins. We identified novel G-quadruplex binding partners, able to recognize these DNA structures at chromosome ends, suggesting a possible, and so far unknown, role of these proteins in telomere functions.
متن کاملDisordering of Human Telomeric G-Quadruplex with Novel Antiproliferative Anthrathiophenedione
Linear heteroareneanthracenediones have been shown to interfere with DNA functions, thereby causing death of human tumor cells and their drug resistant counterparts. Here we report the interaction of our novel antiproliferative agent 4,11-bis[(2-{[acetimido]amino}ethyl)amino]anthra[2,3-b]thiophene-5,10-dione with telomeric DNA structures studied by isothermal titration calorimetry, circular dic...
متن کاملHuman cathelicidin peptide LL37 binds telomeric G-quadruplex.
Stabilization of G-quadruplex inhibits the activity of the enzyme telomerase in cancer cells. We found LL37, a host defense human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide, to be a potent binder of G-quadruplex structures.
متن کاملChiral metallohelices enantioselectively target hybrid human telomeric G-quadruplex DNA
The design and synthesis of metal complexes that can specifically target DNA secondary structure has attracted considerable attention. Chiral metallosupramolecular complexes (e.g. helicates) in particular display unique DNA-binding behavior, however until recently few examples which are both water-compatible and enantiomerically pure have been reported. Herein we report that one metallohelix en...
متن کاملRecognize three different human telomeric G-quadruplex conformations by quinacrine.
Recognition of different human telomeric G-quadruplex structures has been a very important task for developing anti-cancer drug design. However, it also is a very challenging question since multiple conformational isomers of telomeric G-quadruplexes coexist under some conditions. Here, three different conformations including parallel, antiparallel, and mixed-type telomeric G-quadruplex structur...
