Stabilization of G-quadruplex DNA and down-regulation of oncogene c-myc by quindoline derivatives

TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI

9-Substituted berberine derivatives as G-quadruplex stabilizing ligands in telomeric DNA

TL;DR: Introduction of a side chain with proper length of methylene and terminal amino group to the 9-position of berberine would significantly strengthen the binding affinity with G-quadruplex, resulting in increasing inhibitory effects on the amplification of telo21 DNA and on the telomerase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Turning off Transcription of the bcl-2 Gene by Stabilizing the bcl-2 Promoter Quadruplex with Quindoline Derivatives

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the G-quadruplex structure was disrupted when partial mutation of G --> A was made, resulting in a 2-fold increase in basal transcriptional activity of bcl-2 promoter, and G- quadruplex specific ligands could regulate the transcription of bCl-2 through stabilization of quadruplex structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

9-N-Substituted berberine derivatives: Stabilization of G-quadruplex DNA and down-regulation of oncogene c-myc

TL;DR: The experiment results indicated that 9-N-substituted berberine derivatives could selectively induce and stabilize the formation of intramolecular parallel G-quadruplex in c- myc, which led to down-regulation of transcription of the c-myc in the HL60 lymphomas cell line.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Cell Proliferation by Quindoline Derivative (SYUIQ-05) through its Preferential Interaction with c-myc Promoter G-Quadruplex

TL;DR: The results showed that the effect of G-quadruplex ligand SYUIQ-05 on tumor cell lines and the mechanism of this effect showed that it preferred to bind with G- quadruplex in c-myc and had rather insignificant effect on G- quadruplex in telomere.
