Here, we demonstrate that a series of naphthyridine derivatives, naphthyridine carbamate tetramer (NCTn), can bind to the RNA CGG/CGG triad comprised of two single-stranded regions of a hairpin loop and a tail. Complete suppression of the binding by a single mutation indicated simultaneous binding of NCTn between hairpin loop and single stranded tail, leading to the formation of NCTn-induced pseudoknot.
在这里,我们证明了一系列的萘啶衍生物,萘啶基氨基甲酸四聚体(NCTn),可以与 RNA CGG/CGG 三链体结合,该三链体由发夹环的两个单链区和一个尾巴组成。单个突变的完全抑制表明 NCTn 可以同时结合在发夹环和单链尾巴之间,导致 NCTn 诱导的假结的形成。
