Intercalation of small molecules into DNA is photochemically achieved by in situ irradiation of a tetraaryl-pyridinium species. Such a ‘‘DNA intercalation on demand’’ process could highlight an alternative pathway to anticancer basic research, based on photo-activable DNA binders.

Abstract
Intercalation of small molecules into DNA is photochemically achieved by in situ irradiation of a tetraaryl-pyridinium species. Such a ‘‘DNA intercalation on demand’’ process could highlight an alternative pathway to anticancer basic research, based on photo-activable DNA binders.File in questo prodotto:
