Various experimental reports address the stability of G-quadruplex DNA inside a close confinement such as α-hemolysin, nanocavity water pool and different metal-organic-frameworks (MOFs). To understand the conformational change of G-quadruplex...

Lack of specificity and subsequent therapeutic effectiveness of antimicrobial and antitumoral drugs is a common difficulty in therapy. The aim of this study is to investigate, both by experimental and computational methods, the antitumoral and antimicrobial properties of a series of synthesized imidazole-pyridine derivatives. Interaction with three targets was discussed: Dickerson-Drew dodecamer (PDB id 2ADU), G-quadruplex DNA string (PDB id 2F8U) and DNA strain in complex with dioxygenase (PDB id 3S5A). Docking energies were computed and represented graphically. On them, a QSAR model was developed in order to further investigate the structure-activity relationship. Results showed that synthesized compounds have antitumoral and antimicrobial properties. Computational results agreed with the experimental data.
