摘要
A series of new 9-O-substituted berberine derivatives (4a-j) as telomeric quadruplex ligands was synthesized and evaluated. The results from biophysical and biochemical assay indicated that introducing of positive charged aza-aromatic terminal group into the side chain of 9-position of berberine significantly improved the binding ability with G-quadruplex, and exhibited the inhibitory effect on the hybridization and on telomerase activity. These derivatives showed excellent selectivity for telomeric G-quadruplex DNA over duplex. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
