Helix-threadingpeptides (HTPs) bind selectively to sites predisposed to intercalation in folded RNA molecules placing peptide functional groups into the dissimilar grooves of the duplex. Here we report the design and synthesis of new HTPs with quinoline as the intercalation domain. A quinoline-containing HTP is shown to bind selectively to duplex RNA binding sites. Furthermore, the affinity cleavage
