Carbohydrate-modulated DNA photocleavage: design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel glycosyl anthraquinones.

abstract：:Aminoglycosides have been shown to target A-form nucleic acids. Our work has previously shown that neomycin (and other aminoglycosides) bind and stabilize DNA/RNA triplexes and other A-form nucleic acids. We report herein the unexpected B-form duplex stabilization shown by aminoglycoside dimers (neomycin-neomycin and ...
