  3. TMPyP tetrachloride

TMPyP tetrachloride is a DNA-binding agent, singlet oxygen Sensitizer and photobleaching agent. TMPyP tetrachloride binds to DNA via intercalation or external groove complexation; irradiation induces its photoinduced release from DNA. TMPyP tetrachloride sensitizes the generation of singlet molecular oxygen upon irradiation, and prolonged irradiation leads to photobleaching. TMPyP tetrachloride initially localizes preferentially in neuronal nuclei and cytoplasm, and irradiation triggers its subcellular relocalization. TMPyP tetrachloride binds to K+ -free single-molecule G4-DNA nanowires via intercalation, and binds to K+ -type variants via non-intercalation. TMPyP tetrachloride can be used in studies related to cancer, HIV infection and bacterial infection.

Description

TMPyP tetrachloride is a DNA-binding agent, singlet oxygen Sensitizer and photobleaching agent. TMPyP tetrachloride binds to DNA via intercalation or external groove complexation; irradiation induces its photoinduced release from DNA. TMPyP tetrachloride sensitizes the generation of singlet molecular oxygen upon irradiation, and prolonged irradiation leads to photobleaching. TMPyP tetrachloride initially localizes preferentially in neuronal nuclei and cytoplasm, and irradiation triggers its subcellular relocalization. TMPyP tetrachloride binds to K+ -free single-molecule G4-DNA nanowires via intercalation, and binds to K+ -type variants via non-intercalation. TMPyP tetrachloride can be used in studies related to cancer, HIV infection and bacterial infection[1][2][3].

In Vitro

TMPyP (2.5-20 μM; 20 min irradiation) tetrachloride binds to calf thymus DNA, altering its photophysical properties, and irradiation induces photoinduced release of TMPyP from DNA; binding to DNA increases TMPyP's triplet lifetime to 27.8 μs by reducing oxygen quenching[1].
TMPyP (50 μM) tetrachloride acts as a sensitizer to generate detectable singlet oxygen phosphorescence (λmax ~1270 nm) in oxygenated D2O solutions, with the signal completely quenched by 600 μM sodium azide[1].
TMPyP (0.5 TMPyP to G-tetrad molar ratio, 5-8 μM; 30 min-1 h) tetrachloride binds with high affinity via an intercalative mechanism to monomolecular K+-free G4-DNA nanowires, forming a stable complex with a 0.5 TMPyP to G-tetrad molar ratio, characterized by a 19 nm Soret band red shift, 58% hypochromicity, negative induced CD, and efficient energy transfer[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
