Site-Selective DNA Alkylation of GG Steps by Naphthaldiimide Derivatives Possessing Enantiomeric Epoxide
摘要:
We have synthesized an enantiomeric pair of novel DNA alkylating agents consisting of a naphthaldiimide intercalator and a chiral epoxy side chain. These naphthaldiimide derivatives have high DNA binding affinity and selectively alkylate 5'G of the GG steps for (S)-epoxide and 3'G for (R)-epoxide.
