G-quadruplex is a non-canonical secondary structure identified in the telomeric region and the promoter of many oncogenes. Anthraquinone derivatives, a well-known inducer of telomere disruption in malignant cells and activate the apoptotic pathway. We used biophysical and biochemical studies to conf...
