DNA sequence-selective monoheterocyclic analog of Hoechst 33258: cytotoxicity and antiparasitic properties
Abstract: The biophysical and biological evaluations of DNA minor groove binding AT sequence selective benzimidazole analogs of Hoechst 33258 which contain a p-anisyl, a p-[bis (2-chloroethyl) amino]phenyl or a p-anisyl and an amidine moiety are discussed. The preference for all three compounds for the 5′-AAATTT-3′ sequence was ascertained by thermal denaturation and circular dichroism studies. The mustard-containing compound 4 was found to be more cytotoxic against murine cancer cells grown in culture than the non-mustard containing compound. DNA alkylation was not necessary for anti-Leishmanial activity.
