A naphthalene diimide dyad for fluorescence switch-on detection of G-quadruplexes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A non-fluorescent naphthalene diimide (NDI) dimer, conjugating red and blue NDI dyes, becomes red/NIR emitting upon G-quadruplex binding. The fluorescence lifetime which is significantly different for the complexes, the G-quadruplex/dimer and the weakly emitting ds-DNA/dimer is the key feature for the development of new rationally engineered G-quadruplex sensors.

متن کاملSynthesis, Binding and Antiviral Properties of Potent Core-Extended Naphthalene Diimides Targeting the HIV-1 Long Terminal Repeat Promoter G-Quadruplexes
We have previously reported that stabilization of the G-quadruplex structures in the HIV-1 long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter suppresses viral transcription. Here we sought to develop new G-quadruplex ligands to be exploited as antiviral compounds by enhancing binding toward the viral G-quadruplex structures. We synthesized naphthalene diimide derivatives with a lateral expansion of the aromat...

Aggregation, red-NIR emission and light-up upon nucleic acid G-quadruplex binding have been investigated for a prototype core-extended naphthalene diimide, which is capable of fast cellular entry and nucleolar localization. Both high-level colocalization with an anti-G-quadruplex antibody and nucleolin displacement reveal that the compound targets and thus makes visible nuclear DNA G-quadruplexes.
متن کاملMechanism of the antiproliferative activity of some naphthalene diimide G-quadruplex ligands.
G-quadruplexes are higher-order nucleic acid structures that can form in G-rich telomeres and promoter regions of oncogenes. Telomeric quadruplex stabilization by small molecules can lead to telomere uncapping, followed by DNA damage response and senescence, as well as chromosomal fusions leading to deregulation of mitosis, followed by apoptosis and downregulation of oncogene expression. We rep...
متن کاملElectrochemical DNA detection using supramolecular interactions.
An electrochemical DNA detection format has been developed to allow simple and rapid assays with downsized instruments. Since naphthalene diimide derivatives are known to bind to double stranded DNA (dsDNA) with threading intercalation, they are stabilized by pseudo-catenane formation. For example, ferrocenylnaphthalene diimide (FND) can be efficiently concentrated on dsDNA, thus enabling its...
