Targeting C-myc G-Quadruplex: Dual Recognition by Aminosugar-Bisbenzimidazoles with Varying Linker Lengths
TLDR
Biophysical studies indicate that conjugation of neomycin to a G-quadruplex binder, Hoechst 33258, enhances its binding, and the enhancement in G- quadruplex binding of these conjugates varies with the length and composition of the linkers.
Structure-Based Virtual Screening of Novel Natural Alkaloid Derivatives as Potential Binders of h-telo and c-myc DNA G-Quadruplex Conformations
Several ligands can bind to the non-canonical G-quadruplex DNA structures thereby stabilizing them. These molecules can act as effective anticancer agents by stabilizing the telomeric regions of DNA…
A natural product-like inhibitor of NEDD8-activating enzyme.
TLDR

Virtual screening and optimization of Type II inhibitors of JAK2 from a natural product library.
TLDR
In silico optimization using the DOLPHIN model yielded analogues with enhanced potency against JAK2 activity and HCV activity in cellulo that suggested that the analogues may function as Type II inhibitors ofJAK2.
Identification of New Natural DNA G-Quadruplex Binders Selected by a Structure-Based Virtual Screening Approach

The dynamic character of the G-quadruplex element in the c-MYC promoter and modification by TMPyP4.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that this G-quadruplex structure can form a mixture of four biologically relevant parallel-loop isomers, which upon interaction with the cationic porphyrin TMPyP4 are converted to mixed parallel/antiparallel G- quadruplex structures.

TLDR
The design, synthesis, biophysical evaluation, and primary biological data revealed that 3,8,10-trisubstituted isoalloxazines bind and stabilize G-quadruplex DNA, but not duplex DNA, and exhibit potential for discriminating between DNA quadruplexes.

The different biological effects of telomestatin and TMPyP4 can be attributed to their selectivity for interaction with intramolecular or intermolecular G-quadruplex structures.
TLDR
This study has demonstrated that telomestatin interacts preferentially with intramolecular versus intermolecular G-quadruplex structures and also has a 70-fold selectivity for intramolescular G -quadru Plex structures over duplex DNA, and induces anaphase bridges in sea urchin embryos, whereas TMPyP4 did not have this effect.

Stabilization of G-quadruplex DNA and down-regulation of oncogene c-myc by quindoline derivatives.
TLDR
Molecular modeling studies revealed the binding mode between the derivatives and the G-quadruplexes is end-stacking at the 3'-position, and the positively charged side chain on the quindoline derivatives may contribute to the selectivity to certain loop isomers of topological quadruplexes as the improved stabilization action.
