Selective RNA Versus DNA G-Quadruplex Targeting by In Situ Click Chemistry

Selective RNA Versus DNA G-Quadruplex Targeting by In Situ Click Chemistry

It all clicks into place: A potent telomere‐targeting small molecule has been identified by using the copper‐free 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of a series of alkyne and azide building blocks catalyzed by a non‐Watson–Crick DNA secondary structure (see picture). This method rapidly identifies, otherwise...

Zusammenfassung:It all clicks into place: A potent telomere‐targeting small molecule has been identified by using the copper‐free 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of a series of alkyne and azide building blocks catalyzed by a non‐Watson–Crick DNA secondary structure (see picture). This method rapidly identifies, otherwise unanticipated, potent small‐molecule probes to selectively target a given RNA or DNA.
