This report describes the synthesis and characterization of novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) gold(I) complexes and their bioconjugation to the CCRF-CEM leukemia specific aptamer sgc8c. Confirmation of successful bioconjugation was achieved by using fluorescent tags on both the NHC-Au(I) complex and the aptamer. Cell viability assays indicate the NHC-Au(I)-aptamer conjugate is more cytotoxic than the NHC-gold complex alone. A combination of flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, and cell viability assays provide clear evidence that the NHC-Au(I)-aptamer conjugate is selective for targeted CCRF-CEM leukemia cells.
