The results of UV-visible spectra show that the HB and MCHB could intercalate into the base-stacking domain of the CT-DNA double helix. The studies of fluorescence spectra and circular dichroism(CD) spectra also support the interacalation mechanism.展开更多

These results may be attributed to the site competition of MMC with the probe and electron transfer between MMC and probe. MMC also increases polarization degree of the probe by covalent drug-DNA or DNA-drug-DNA crosslinking.展开更多
