Abstract
5-(1 -Pyrenyl)-10,15,20-tris(4-methylpyridinium)porphine (H2PTMPP) having a porphyrin ring and a pyrenyl substituent was synthesized. The compound H2PTMPP bound to poly(dA)•poly(dT) double helix and poly(dA)•2poly(dT) triple helix in different styles. The results of H2PTMPP binding to oligonucleotides, dA14•dT14 and dA14•2dT14, was also shown.
