The Dynamic Regulation of G-Quadruplex DNA Structures by Cytosine Methylation

It is well known that certain non B-DNA structures, including G-quadruplexes, are key elements that can regulate gene expression. Here, we explore the theory that DNA modifications, such as methylation of cytosine, could act as a dynamic switch by promoting or alleviating the structural formation of...
