Effect of Ionic Strength on Porphyrin Drugs Interaction with Quadruplex DNA Formed by the Promoter Region of C-myc and Bcl2 Oncogenes

(a) CD spectra for the 27Bcl2 mid promoter sequence, wavelength in nm is plotted on 𝑥 -axis, and Ellipticity, 𝜃 , is plotted on the 𝑦 -axis in mdeg. The 5 × 1 0 6  M quadruplex DNA is considered for each CD experiment. CD spectra are recorded at 1 2 and 1 4 quadruplex DNA: TMPyP4 stoichiometry. Each spectrum is recorded thrice, and the average of the three runs is considered. (b) CD spectra for the C-myc sequence, wavelength in nm is plotted on 𝑥 -axis and Ellipticity, 𝜃 , is plotted on the 𝑦 -axis in mdeg.
