Putative DNA G-quadruplex formation within the promoters of <it>Plasmodium falciparum var </it>genes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Guanine-rich nucleic acid sequences are capable of folding into an intramolecular four-stranded structure called a G-quadruplex. When found in gene promoter regions, G-quadruplexes can downregulate gene expression, possibly by blocki...
