Abstract

A strategy of dimethylamino alkyldiimide conjugated with an intercalator of naphthalimide for hydrolysis of DNA was suggested and evaluated. 4 can hydrolyze 4 kb plasmid DNA into 2 kb fragments with GC and GG selectivity, which represents a novel example of sequence- or site-selective metal-free DNA artificial nuclease. Results also show it could hydrolyze RNA efficiently.
