Investigating G-quadruplex structures in RPGR gene: Implications for understanding X-linked retinal degeneration

Aims: This pilot study investigates the potential pathogenic role of G-quadruplex (G4) structures in RPGR-associated retinal degeneration, starting from a case of suspected X-linked form affected family. We hypothesize that the stabilization of these structures might alter DNA replication and transc...
