Interaction of YOYO-1 with guanine-rich DNA

Abstract: The oxazole homodimer YOYO-1 has served as a valuable tool for the detection and quantification of nucleic acids. While the base specificity and selectivity of binding of YOYO-1 has been researched to some extent, the effect of unorthodox nucleic acid conformations on dye binding has received relatively less attention. In this work, we attempt to correlate the quadruplex-forming ability of G-rich sequences with binding of YOYO-1. Oligonucleotides differing in the number of tandem G repeats, total length, and l… Show more

“…The synthetic ability to structurally tailor cyanines as well as their many therapeutically favorable features, such as low toxicity, also renders them ideal candidates for their potential development as quadruplex targeting agents. In addition, the fluorescence properties of cyanines have been extensively developed in understanding the structural transitions associated with quadruplex folding/unfolding as well as in developing fluorescence agents for detecting different quadruplex conformers in vitro [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. Development of quadruplex-specific fluorescence probes with reduced duplex affinity would significantly aid in targeting and visualization of quadruplex structures in an otherwise duplex-enriched genomic content.…”

“…35 In 10 mM Na + or K + , the uorescence intensity of YOYO-1 with the G-quadruplex is even lower than those with a mixture base duplex of comparable length. Other types of probes, such as a BODIPY-based uores-cent sensor (GQR), 36 bind to their specic G-quadruplex accompanied by 30-fold uorescence enhancement, which is less than one seventh compared with AB-P4.…”

“…In this mini-review we will describe only the applications of the synthetic FP Cros for fluorescence imaging, and some fluorescence studies in solutions which can be potentially applied for imaging. Indeed, numerous classes of various fluorogens are known [7][8][9] which are used for the fluorimetric determination of analytes described in this mini-review.…”
