Non-covalent Metallo-Drugs: Using Shape to Target DNA and RNA Junctions and Other Nucleic Acid Structures.
The most effective class of anticancer drugs in clinical use are the platins which act by binding to duplex B-DNA. Yet duplex DNA is not DNA in its active form, and many other structures are formed in cells; for example, Y-shaped fork structures are involved in DNA replication and transcription and 4-way junctions with DNA repair. In this chapter we explore how large, cationic metallo-supramolecular structures can be used to bind to these less common, yet active, nucleic acid structures.
