G-quadruplex has been proved to be one of the effective targets for developing novel antitumor drugs. The proposal aims to achieve novel aminosugar-intercalator conjugate with high affinity, selectivity and specificity, and subsequently use them as G-quadruplex ligands to act on bcl-2 mRNA G-quadruplex. A series of novel aminosugar-intercalator conjugates were designed on the basis of the latest released G-quadruplex-binding functions of some natural aminoglycoside, and will be synthesized via appropriate protective function group strategy. The research approach will be guided by computer-aided design to better fit the aminosugar-intercalator complexes into the targeting sequence-dependent grooves and loops, and their effective binding will be determined by the NMR and CD spectroscopy. Finally, the in vitro antitumor activity evaluation, the protein expression modulation and the plasmid construction will be helpful to conclude the SARs and explore the corresponding mechanism. Projects from this proposed research ultimately afford new and significant approach to mRNA-based G-quadruplex ligands, and seek to go beyond the evident limits of current DNA G-quadruplex ligands. This will be beneficial to provide new scientific idea for finding G-quadruplex ligand leads.
