“…Design and Synthesis of G4-Ligand-Conjugated Oligonucleotides (GL-Os). We recently reported on a novel G4-ligand (Figure 1A), 28 that both efficiently binds and stabilizes G4 DNA structures and that has drug-like properties (e.g., no permanent charges and has a low molecular weight), allowing further conjugation to an oligonucleotide guide sequence. To enable conjugation of this G4-Ligand (in this study, renamed GL) to the oligonucleotide sequence, an azido-substituted piperazine side chain was introduced for further conjugation through click chemistry (Figure 1B).…”

“…Overview of the strategy and chemistry employed in this study. (A) Summary of the presented strategy to target individual G4 DNA structures using G4-ligand-oligonucleotide (GL-O) compounds, G4-ligand correspond to compound number 14a in reference . (B) Synthesis of the azido-functionalized quinazoline-pyrimidine ligand for further conjugations with click chemistry.…”

“…Analogous to our findings with the c-MYC G4, GL-O15 effectively enhanced G4 stabilization for the c-KIT and HelB G4s when a complementary flanking region was present on the DNA template. A much stronger reduction of full-length DNA product was observed in the presence of GL-O15 compared to GL for both G4s (c-KIT, compare [22][23][24][25]. This shows that our GL-O strategy in theory can be designed towards any G4 DNA structure by replacement of the guide oligonucleotide.…”

“…In the cellular context, such ligands have also been observed to down-regulate the transcription of oncogenes (22). In the same way, telomerase activity has been found to be inhibited by ligands that can stabilize the telomeric G-quadruplex structures (23,24). These types of compounds can thus be used to study G4 biology and for further developments towards therapeutics.…”

“…In this work, we designed a small series of molecules based on a quinazoline-pyrimidine scaffold of type 1 ( Figure 1 A) 35 to investigate how different substitution patterns affect the arene–arene interactions and thus the G4 binding and stabilization. We hypothesized that compound 2 , bearing no substituents on the quinazoline core, should display less favorable binding with the G4 if the dispersion in the arene–arene interactions is essential for the binding.…”
