Six novel di-substituted phenanthroline derivatives 5a-7a and 3b-5b have been prepared, and their binding interactions with human telomeric (h-telo) and promoter (c-kit2 and c-myc) G-quadruplex DNAs were investigated. All the compounds are potent stabilisers of the G-quadruplex structures and compounds 3b, 4b, and 5b exhibit high G-quadruplex DNA selectivity over duplex DNA. The binding affinities of these compounds to G-quadruplex DNA are higher than to duplex DNA. CD spectra show that the…

A Selective G-Quadruplex DNA-Stabilizing Ligand Based on a Cyclic Naphthalene Diimide Derivative
TLDR
A cyclic naphthalene diimide (cyclic NDI, 1), carrying a benzene moiety as linker chain, was synthesized and its interaction with G-quadruplex DNAs was studied based on UV-VIS and circular dichroism spectroscopic techniques, thermal melting temperature measurement, and FRET-melting assay.

Dimeric 1,3-phenylene-bis(piperazinyl benzimidazole)s: synthesis and structure-activity investigations on their binding with human telomeric G-quadruplex DNA and telomerase inhibition properties.
TLDR
The dimeric ligands having oligo-oxyethylene spacers provide much higher stability to the preformed G4DNA and also exert significantly higher telomerase inhibition activity.
Synthesis and binding studies of novel diethynyl-pyridine amides with genomic promoter DNA G-quadruplexes.
TLDR
The studies validate the design concept of the 1,3-diethynyl-pyridine-based scaffold and demonstrate that these ligands exhibit not only significant selectivity over duplex DNA but also variation in G-quadruplex interaction properties based on small chemical changes in the scaffold, leading to unprecedented differential recognition of different DNA G- quadruplex sequences.

TLDR
The synthesis of bisquinolinium and bispyridinium derivatives of 1,8-naphthyridine and their interaction with human telomeric DNA and promoter G-quadruplex forming DNAs indicate that the naphthyrsidine-based ligands with quinoliniumand pyrid inium side chains form a promising class of quadruplex DNA stabilizing agents having high selectivity for quadruplexDNA structures over duplex DNA structures.

TLDR
Compound 19 has significant in vivo anticancer activity against a human breast cancer xenograft (MDA-MB-435) in athymic nude mice, and may suggest a role for G-quadruplex ligands interacting with mRNA being associated with the biological activity of macrocyclic polyoxazoles.

TLDR
Novel 4,7-diamino-substituted 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxamides that represent hybrid structures of known phenanthro line-based ligands have been designed and represent a significant improvement over the lead compounds.

Three new substituted terpyridine ligands and their corresponding platinum(II) complexes have been prepared and fully characterized and it is shown that the complexes have a modest selectivity for quadruplex, particularly c-myc, versus duplex DNA.

TLDR
The structure of an unprecedented intramolecular G-quadruplex formed by a G-rich sequence in the c-kit promoter in K+ solution is reported, which represents a new folding topology with several unique features and an isolated guanine is involved in G-tetrad core formation, despite the presence of four three-guanine tracts.
