Efficacy of DNA Intercalator-Conjugated Triplex-Forming Oligonucleotide for Anticancer Therapy
2025-04-24
Abstract excerpt
A triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) can form a sequence-specific triple helix via Hoogsteen hydrogen bonding to polypurine tracts within a major groove side of a DNA duplex. Triplex formation can induce a double-strand break, and this phenomenon at the amplified gene loci can selectively induce the cell death of cancer cells with specific gene amplification. However, the relationship between the binding affini...
