G-quadruplex DNA show structural polymorphism, leading to challenges in the use of selective recognition probes for the accurate detection of G-quadruplexes in vivo. Herein, we present a tripodal cationic fluorescent probe, NBTE, which showed distinguishable fluorescence lifetime responses between G-quadruplexes and other DNA topologies, and fluorescence quantum yield (Φf) enhancement upon G-quadruplex binding. We determined two NBTE-G-quadruplex complex structures with high Φf values by NMR spectroscopy. The structures indicated NBTE interacted with G-quadruplexes using three arms through π-π stacking, differing from that with duplex DNA using two arms, which rationalized the higher Φf values and lifetime response of NBTE upon G-quadruplex binding. Based on photon counts of FLIM, we detected the percentage of G-quadruplex DNA in live cells with NBTE and found G-quadruplex DNA content in cancer cells is 4-fold that in normal cells, suggesting the potential applications of this probe in cancer cell detection.Tris(4-bromophenyl)amine(cas: 4316-58-9Application In Synthesis of Tris(4-bromophenyl)amine) was used in this study.
