Characterization and solubilization of pyrrole-imidazole polyamide aggregates.
Published in Journal of medicinal chemistry
To optimize the biological activity of pyrrole-imidazole polyamide DNA-binding molecules, we characterized the aggregation propensity of these compounds through dynamic light scattering and fractional solubility analysis. Nearly all studied polyamides were found to form measurable particles 50-500 nm in size under biologically relevant conditions, ...
