Abstract

Three new perylene derivatives with branched ionizable side chains were synthesized, and their G-quadruplex binding specificities were compared by spectroscopic and electrophoretic analysis with two well-studied G-quadruplex ligands: PIPER and TmPyP4. The value of pH and consequent charge formation and self-aggregation of these perylene derivatives influences not only the type of G-quadruplex formation, but also the G-quadruplex binding selectivity.
