چکیده
The tetramolecular PNA quadruplex motif has been probed using a dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) approach to create and characterize a bimolecular PNA quadruplex.

Combining G-quadruplex targeting motifs on a single PNA scaffold: A hybrid (3+1) PNA-DNA bimolecular quadruplex
We describe the first Gquadruplex targeting approach that combines an intercalation and a hybridization strategy by investigating the interaction of a G-rich PNA acridone conjugate 1 with a three repeat fragment of the human telomere G3 to form a hybrid PNA-DNA quadruplex mimicking the biologically relevant (3+1) pure DNA dimeric telomeric quadruplex. Using a combination of UV, CD and fluoresce...
متن کاملControlled assembly of SNAP-PNA-fluorophore systems on DNA templates to produce fluorescence resonance energy transfer.
The SNAP protein is a widely used self-labeling tag that can be used for tracking protein localization and trafficking in living systems. A model system providing controlled alignment of SNAP-tag units can provide a new way to study clustering of fusion proteins. In this work, fluorescent SNAP-PNA conjugates were controllably assembled on DNA frameworks, forming dimers, trimers, and tetramers. ...
متن کاملSynthesis of polyacrylamides N-substituted with PNA-like oligonucleotide mimics for molecular diagnostic applications.
Two types of oligonucleotide mimics relative to peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) were tested as probes in nucleic acid hybridisation assays based on polyacrylamide technology. One type of mimic oligomers represented a chimera constructed of PNA and phosphono-PNA (pPNA) monomers, and the other one contained pPNA residues alternating with PNA-like monomers on the base of trans -4-hydroxy-L-proline (H...
متن کاملStrand invasion of DNA quadruplexes by PNA: comparison of homologous and complementary hybridization.
Molecular recognition of DNA quadruplex structures is envisioned to be a strategy for regulating gene expression at the transcriptional level and for in situ analysis of telomere structure and function. The recognition of DNA quadruplexes by peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligomers is presented here, with a focus on comparing complementary, heteroduplex-forming and homologous, heteroquadruplex-form...
متن کاملEnhanced stability of G-quadruplexes from conformationally constrained aep-PNA backbone.
Nucleic (DNA) acids having contiguous stretch of G sequence form quadruplex structure, which is very critical to control cell division. Recently the existence of G-quadruplex in RNA is also reported in presence of monovalent metal ion. PNA is a promising DNA analogue which binds strongly to DNA to form PNA:DNA duplex or PNA(2):DNA triplex. PNA also forms quadruplexes such G-quadruplex and i-mot...
