Kinetic Target‐Guided Synthesis of Small‐Molecule G‐Quadruplex Stabilizers
The formation of a G‐quadruplex motif in the promoter region of the c‐MYC protooncogene prevents its expression. Accordingly, G‐quadruplex stabilization by a suitable ligand may be a viable approach for anticancer therapy.

G-quadruplex: A potential target for small molecules and proteins in anti-cancer drug investigation
DNA or RNA G-quadruplexes are secondary structures that occur in four-stranded Guanine-rich regions formed by stacked G-tetrads. The formation of DNA or RNA G-quadruplex structures plays a key role in many cellular biological processes such as DNA ...

Backbone modified TBA analogues endowed with antiproliferative activity [PDF]
Background: Thrombin binding aptamer (TBA) is endowed with antiproliferative properties but its potential development is counteracted by concomitant anticoagulant activity. Methods: Five oligonucleotides (ODNs) based on TBA sequence (GGTTGGTGTGGTTGG) and

G-quadruplexes have gained prominence over the past two decades for their role in gene regulation, control of anti-tumour activity and ageing. The physiological relevance and significance of these non-canonical structures in the context of cancer has ...

Bis-indolinone derivatives having either 2,6-disubstituted pyridine core (1a and 1b) or 1,10-disubstituted phenanthroline core (2a and 2b), already known to have antitumor activity, have been tested as potential G-quadruplex binders.

Targeting DNA G-quadruplexes with helical small molecules. [PDF]
We previously identified quinoline-based oligoamide helical foldamers and a trimeric macrocycle as selective ligands of DNA quadruplexes. Their helical structures might permit targeting of the backbone loops and grooves of G-quadruplexes instead of the G-

C-myc and Bcl2 are well characterized oncogenes that are capable of forming G-quadruplex structures. Promoter regions of C-myc and Bcl2 forming G-quadruplex structures are chemically synthesized and G-quadruplex structure is formed in presence of 100 mM ...

Identifying the impact of G-quadruplexes on Affymetrix 3' arrays using cloud computing. [PDF]
A tetramer quadruplex structure is formed by four parallel strands of DNA/ RNA containing runs of guanine. These quadruplexes are able to form because guanine can Hoogsteen hydrogen bond to other guanines, and a tetrad of guanines can form a stable ...
