Visualising G-quadruplex DNA dynamics in live cells by fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy
Direct observation of G-quadruplexes (G4s) in live cells is challenging. Here the authors report a method to identify G4s within the nuclei of live and fixed cells using a fluorescent probe combined with fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy.
