Effect of Pressure on Thermal Stability of G-Quadruplex DNA and Double-Stranded DNA Structures
Pressure is a thermodynamic parameter that can induce structural changes in biomolecules due to a volumetric decrease. Although most proteins are denatured by pressure over 100 MPa because they have the large cavities inside their structures, the double-stranded structure of DNA is stabilized or des...
