A Cationic Tetraphenylethene as a Light-Up Supramolecular Probe for DNA G-Quadruplexes

Guanine-quadruplexes (G4s) are targets for anticancer therapeutics. In this context, human telomeric DNA (HT-DNA) that can fold into G4s sequences are of particular interest, and their stabilization with small molecules through a visualizable process has become a challenge. As a new type of ligand f...
