Boutorine AS, Novopashina DS, Krasheninina OA, Nozeret K, Venyaminova AG. Fluorescent probes for nucleic Acid visualization in fixed and live cells. Molecules 2013; 18:15357-97.

Abstract
This review analyses the literature concerning non-fluorescent and fluorescent probes for nucleic acid imaging in fixed and living cells from the point of view of their suitability for imaging intracellular native RNA and DNA. Attention is mainly paid to fluorescent probes for fluorescence microscopy imaging. Requirements for the target-binding part and the fluorophore making up the probe are formulated. In the case of native double-stranded DNA, structure-specific and sequence-specific probes are discussed. Among the latest, three classes of dsDNA-targeting molecules are described: (i) sequence-specific peptides and proteins; (ii) triplex-forming oligonucleotides and (iii) polyamide oligo(N-methylpyrrole/N-methylimidazole) minor groove binders. Polyamides seem to be the most promising targeting agents for fluorescent probe design, however, some technical problems remain to be solved, such as the relatively low sequence specificity and the high background fluorescence inside the cells. Several examples of fluorescent probe applications for DNA imaging in fixed and living cells are cited. In the case of intracellular RNA, only modified oligonucleotides can provide such sequence-specific imaging. Several approaches for designing fluorescent probes are considered: linear fluorescent probes based on modified oligonucleotide analogs, molecular beacons, binary fluorescent probes and template-directed reactions with fluorescence probe formation, FRET donor-acceptor pairs, pyrene excimers, aptamers and others. The suitability of all these methods for living cell applications is discussed.

Hx-amides: DNA sequence recognition by the fluorescent Hx (p-anisylbenzimidazole)•pyrrole and Hx•imidazole pairings. Bioorg Med Chem Lett 2013; 23:1699-702.

Abstract
Hx-amides are fluorescent hybrids of imidazole (I)- and pyrrole (P)-containing polyamides and Hoechst 33258, and they bind in the minor groove of specific DNA sequences. Synthesis and DNA binding studies of HxII (5) complete our studies on the first set of Hx-amides: Hx-I/P-I/P. HxPP (2), HxIP (3) and HxPI (4) were reported earlier. Results from DNase I footprinting, biosensor-SPR, CD and ΔTM studies showed that Hx-amides interacted with DNA via the anti-parallel and stacked, side-by-side motif. Hx was found to mimic the DNA recognition properties of two consecutive pyrrole units (PP) in polyamides. Accordingly, the stacked Hx/PP pairing binds preferentially to two consecutive AT base pairs, A/T-A/T; Hx/IP prefers C-A/T; Hx/PI prefers A/T-C; and Hx/II prefers C-C. The results also showed that Hx-amides bound their cognate sequence at a higher affinity than their formamido-triamide counterparts.

Abstract
1,4-Phenylenediamine reacted readily with chloroacetone to give 1,4-bis[(2-oxopropyl)amino]benzene which was used to prepare 1-(4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl)-1H-pyrrole derivatives in a one pot reaction with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal or triethyl orthoformate and an active methylene nitrile, an active methylene ketone or an ylidene-malononitrile. Reaction of 1,4-bis[(2-oxopropyl)amino]benzene with arene diazonium salts afforded the hydrazone derivatives which readily cyclised when reacted with malononitrile to give bispyrrole derivatives. The antibacterial activity of some of the products was determined.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of elongating base-pair (bp) recognition sequences, we synthesized N-methylpyrrole-N-methylimidazole (PI) polyamide conjugates with eight-bp recognition (3-5). The DNA alkylating activities of conjugates 3-5 were evaluated by high-resolution denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with a 208-bp DNA fragment. Conjugates 3-5 showed high alkylating activities at nanomolar concentrations. We then addressed the following issue about PI conjugates. Generally, PI polyamide conjugates hardly dissolve in aqueous solution. To improve the aqueous solubility, by the introduction of hydrophilic groups, we synthesized PI polyamide conjugates that were modified with a seco-CBI moiety (6-11). Conjugates 9-11 that were modified by methoxypolyethylene glycol (PEG) 750 acquired moderate solubility and stability in aqueous solution. In addition, conjugates 10 and 11 had high cytotoxicity against A549 and DU145.
