The fluorescence signals and circular dichroism spectrum changes were explored for the interaction between jatrorrhizine chloride (Jat), a naturally aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecule, and various DNA secondary structures. The fluorescence emission intensity was dramatically enhanced after Jat binding to G4 (AA22 as model analyte) compared with other configuration of DNAs, such as single-strand DNA (ssDNA), duplex DNA (dsDNA), hairpin DNA, and i-motif DNA were firstly reported.
