Direct genome-wide identification of G-quadruplex structures by whole-genome resequencing

Current methods to identify G-quadruplex structures in DNA require specialized protocols and multiple rounds of sequencing. Here, the authors develop a method to detect G-quadruplex structures in DNA based on fluctuations in sequencing quality in a standard sequencing experiment.
