Popis: | G-quadruplexes have been widely researched as new targets for cancer treatment owing to their non-canonical structure and crucial role in biological processes. Although attention has been paid to the development of selective G-quadruplex ligands, few studies have focused on the binding affinity of stereoisomers towards G-quadruplex, which will be conducive to support the optimal design of G-quadruplex ligands in future studies. Here, tetrandrine and isotetrandrine were used to study the binding affinity and difference of stereoisomers towards G-quadruplex structures. The results showed that tetrandrine had a high possibility of binding to the N-myc and Bcl-2 G-quadruplexes through hydrogen bonding, whereas the possibility of binding of isotetrandrine was low and it seemed to have no possibility of forming hydrogen bonds. Our study shows that optical isomerism of ligand molecules has an important effect on G-quadruplex recognition, which is helpful for the design of G-quadruplex ligands in future studies.
