چکیده

We report here on the discovery and preliminary evaluation of a novel non-macrocyclic low molecular weight quadruplex-stabilizing chemotype. The lead compounds, based on a furan core, show high G-quadruplex stabilisation and selectivity as well as potent in vitro anti-proliferative activity.

A new application of click chemistry in situ: development of fluorescent probe for specific G-quadruplex topology

Target-guided synthesis is an approach to drug discovery that allows the target to self-assemble its own binding agents. So far, target-guided synthesis and especially in situ click chemistry have attracted extensive attention and have led to the identification of highly potent inhibitors for proteins. In this study, we expand the application of in situ click chemistry and present a procedure u...

A New Cationic Porphyrin Derivative (TMPipEOPP) with Large Side Arm Substituents: A Highly Selective G-Quadruplex Optical Probe

The discovery of uncommon DNA structures and speculation about their potential functions in genes has brought attention to specific DNA structure recognition. G-quadruplexes are four-stranded nucleic acid structures formed by G-rich DNA (or RNA) sequences. G-rich sequences with a high potential to form G-quadruplexes have been found in many important genomic regions. Porphyrin derivatives with ...

A novel biosensing strategy for screening G-quadruplex ligands based on graphene oxide sheets.

A novel fluorescence biosensing strategy for simple, rapid and sensitive selecting quadruplex-binding ligands was reported by using graphene oxide (GO) as the fluorescence quencher. Data from transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) image, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy demonstrated that single-layered GO sheets were successfu...

Discovery of a new fluorescent light-up probe specific to parallel G-quadruplexes.

A novel 2,4,5-triaryl-substituted imidazole (IZCM-1) has been found to display distinct and specific fluorescence enhancement upon binding to parallel G-quadruplexes. Such a sensitive and topology-specific probe is able to light up without affecting the topology or thermal stability of the G-quadruplex sample. Thus, these advantages distinguish IZCM-1 from other G-quadruplex probes.

Target guided synthesis using DNA nano-templates for selectively assembling a G-quadruplex binding c-MYC inhibitor

The development of small molecules is essential to modulate the cellular functions of biological targets in living system. Target Guided Synthesis (TGS) approaches have been used for the identification of potent small molecules for biological targets. We herein demonstrate an innovative example of TGS using DNA nano-templates that promote Huisgen cycloaddition from an array of azide and alkyne ...
