G¿Quadruplex DNA as a Target in Pathogenic Bacteria: Efficacy of an Extended Naphthalene Diimide Ligand and Its Mode of Action.

Guanidine DNA quadruplex (G4-DNA) structures convey a distinctive layer of epigenetic information that is critical for regulating key biological activities and processes as transcription, replication, and repair in living cells. The information regarding their role and use as therapeutic drug target...
