چکیده
A supramolecular probe is designed for visual detection of potassium based on a novel cyanine dye aggregate recognizing the motif transition of telomeric G-quadruplexes under the Na(+) background. The practical application for colorimetric measurement of urine potassium has been tested.

Visual detection of mercury(II) based on recognition of the G-quadruplex conformational transition by a cyanine dye supramolecule.
A supramolecular probe for visual detection of mercury (Hg) has been designed by using a cyanine dye and AS1411 G-quadruplexes, which exhibits an obvious color change from red to blue in response to an increased level of Hg(2+). The supramolecular probe exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity towards Hg(2+) and is promising for the detection of environmental samples with the naked eye.

متن کاملCyanine Dye Interactions with Quadruplex and Duplex DNA: Changes in Conformation, Stability, and Affinity
There is a high demand for quadruplex-specific compounds that not only bind preferentially to quadruplex DNA over duplex DNA, but also bind to one quadruplex motif over other motifs. Quadruplex structures are recognized as common occurrences in cancer cells, and if a compound could stabilize this structure, it may serve as an effective anti-cancer treatment with minimal side effects. In this st...
متن کاملVerification of specific G-quadruplex structure by using a novel cyanine dye supramolecular assembly: II. The binding characterization with specific intramolecular G-quadruplex and the recognizing mechanism
The supramolecular assembly of a novel cyanine dye, 3,3'-di(3-sulfopropyl)-4,5,4',5'-dibenzo-9-ethyl-thiacarbocyanine triethylammonium salt (ETC) was designed to verify specific intramolecular G-quadruplexes from duplex and single-strand DNAs. Spectral results have shown that ETC presented two major distinct signatures with specific intramolecular G-quadruplexes in vitro: (i) dramatic changes i...
متن کاملTargeting of parallel c-myc G-quadruplex by dimeric cyanine dye supramolecular assembly: dependence on the linker length.
A series of dimeric cyanine dyes were designed to study their recognition for parallel c-myc G-quadruplex as well as their spectral features in solution. Dimeric cyanine dyes having different length linkers show their recognition for c-myc over duplex DNAs following the order: TC-P4 > TC-P5 > TC-P6 > TC-P3 > TC-P7 [the numeral is the number of repeat units (oligo-oxyethylene) in the linker]. Th...
