Abstract

Template-assembled synthetic G-quartet (TASQ) has been reported recently as a G- quadruplex ligand interacting with DNA according to an unprecedented, nature-inspired 'like likes like'approach, based on the association between two G-quartets, one being native (quadruplex) and the other one artificial (ligand). Herein, a novel TASQ-based ligand is designed, synthesized and its quadruplex-recognition properties are evaluated in vitro: ...
