چکیده
Macrocyclic hexaoxazole dimer of L2H2-6OTD-dimer (3) was newly synthesized as a telomeric G-quadruplex (G4) ligand, and interaction with long telomeric DNAs telo48, 72, and 96 was evaluated by means of electrophoresis mobility shift assay, CD spectra analysis, and CD melting experiments. The L2H2-6OTD-dimer (3) interacted with the long telomeric DNAs by inducing anti-parallel type G4 structure of each unit of 24 bases, i.e., (TTAGGG)₄ sequences. Dimer 3 stabilizes long telomeric DNAs more efficiently than the corresponding monomer of L2H2-6OTD (2). It showed potent inhibitory activity against telomerase, with an IC₅₀ value of 7.5 nm.

G-quadruplex recognition by macrocyclic hexaoxazole (6OTD) dimer.
Telomestatin (TMS: 1) is as a potent and selective telomeric G-quadruplex binder. Two molecules of TMS were suggested to be intercalated to one telomeric G-quadruplex according to docking study. In this paper, we designed and synthesized hexaoxazole TMS derivative (6OTD) dimer, and evaluated its G-quadruplex stabilizing ability.
متن کاملSynthesis of Macrocyclic Hexaoxazole (6OTD) Dimers, Containing Guanidine and Amine Functionalized Side Chains, and an Evaluation of Their Telomeric G4 Stabilizing Properties
Structure-activity relationship studies were carried out on macrocyclic hexaoxazole (6OTD) dimers, whose core structure stabilizes telomeric G-quadruplexes (G4). Two new 6OTD dimers having side chain amine and guanidine functional groups were synthesized and evaluated for their stabilizing ability against a telomeric G4 DNA sequence. The results show that the 6OTD dimers interact with the DNA t...
متن کاملAnalysis of the unbinding force between telomestatin derivatives and human telomeric G-quadruplex by atomic force microscopy.
The force analysis between a macrocyclic hexazole (6OTD) monomer/dimer and telomeric DNA using atomic force microscopy revealed the difference in their binding modes. The 6OTD dimer bound to the G-quadruplex more strongly than the monomer by sandwiching the G-quadruplex.
متن کاملDefining the mode, energetics and specificity with which a macrocyclic hexaoxazole binds to human telomeric G-quadruplex DNA
Oxazole-containing macrocycles represent a promising class of anticancer agents that target G-quadruplex DNA. We report the results of spectroscopic studies aimed at defining the mode, energetics and specificity with which a hexaoxazole-containing macrocycle (HXDV) binds to the intramolecular quadruplex formed by the human telomeric DNA model oligonucleotide d(T2AG3)4 in the presence of potassi...
متن کاملG-Quadruplex DNA Bound by a Synthetic Ligand is Highly Dynamic
Using single molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer, we investigated the interaction between a quadruplex-binding ligand and the human telomeric G-quadruplex. The binding of quinolinecarboxamide macrocycle to telomeric DNA was essentially irreversible and selectively induced and favored one quadruplex conformation. The ligand-quadruplex complex displayed intramolecular dynamics includi...
