Ruthenium(ii) Polypyridyl complexes as FRET donors: structure- and sequence-selective DNA binding and anti-cancer properties by E. Elgar, Christopher, Yusoh, Nur Aininie, R. Tiley, Paul, Kolozsvári, Natália, G. Bennett, Laura, Gamble, Amelia, V. Péan, Emmanuel, L. Davies, Matthew, J. Staples, Christopher, Ahmad, Haslina, R. Gill, Martin

“…Here, we report that MLCT-emissive RPCs that bind DNA undergo Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) with Cy5.5-labeled DNA, forming mega-Stokes shift FRET pairs. Based on this discovery, we developed a simple and rapid FRET binding assay to examine DNA-binding interactions of RPCs with diverse photophysical properties, including non-“light switch” complexes [Ru(dppz)2(5,5′dmb)]2+ and [Ru(PIP)2(5,5′dmb)]2+ (dppz = dipyridophenazine, 5,5′dmb = 5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine, PIP = 2-phenyl-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline). …”
