Supramolecular iron cylinder with unprecedented DNA binding is a potent cytostatic and apoptotic agent without exhibiting genotoxicity.
The supramolecular iron cylinder, [Fe(2)L(3)]Cl(4) (L = C(25)H(20)N(4)), shows unprecedented DNA binding in vitro, inducing intramolecular DNA coiling and also targeting Y-shaped DNA junctions. We investigated its effects on proliferation and survival in both tumor and normal cell lines. Iron cylind...
