The interaction of synthetic RNAs with quinacrine (QAC) and its analogs has been studied by absorption, fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) measurements. The results indicate that the 2-methoxy group of the acridine ring plays an important role in the appearance of the new absorption band upon binding of QAC to poly-(rA).poly(rU).
