LIGHT-CONTROLLED ACTIVATION AND INTERNALISATION OF SMALL MOLECULES THAT CAN BIND TO DOUBLE-STRANDED DNA

摘要

The invention relates to compounds formed by a small molecule that can bind to double-stranded DNA, covalently linked to a photolabile protecting group, and to the uses thereof. The deprotection of these compounds by means of light irradiation allows the activation of the aforementioned DNA-bound molecules to be controlled in space and time.
