Some metallo-supramolecular helical assemblies with size, shape, charge and amphipathic architectures similar to short cationic α-helical peptides have been shown to target and stabilise DNA G-quadruplexes (G4s) in vitro and downregulate the expression of G4-regulated genes in human cells. To expand the library of metallohelical structures that can act as efficient DNA G4 binders and downregulate genes containing G4-forming sequences in their promoter regions, we investigated the interaction of the two enantiomeric pairs of asymmetric Fe(II) triplex metallohelices with a series of five different DNA G4s formed by the human telomeric sequence (hTelo) and in the promoter regions of c-MYC, c-KIT, and k-RAS oncogenes. The metallohelices display preferential binding to G4s over duplex DNA in all investigated G4-forming sequences and induced arrest of DNA polymerase on template strands containing G4-forming sequences. Moreover, the investigated metallohelices suppressed the expression of c-MYC and k-RAS genes at mRNA and protein levels in HCT116 human cancer cells, as revealed by RT-qPCR analysis and western blotting.
