Abstract

The preparation of a novel acridine-based amino acid is reported. This N-Alloc-protected monomer can be coupled and deprotected under solid-phase peptide synthesis procedures to create acridine peptide conjugates as potential threading intercalators. A peptide containing this novel amino acid undergoes spectral changes in the presence of duplex DNA and RNA consistent with intercalative binding.
