K<sup>+</sup> vs. Na<sup>+</sup> Effects on the Self-Assembly of Guanosine 5′-Monophosphate: A Solution SAXS Structural Study

The hierarchical process of guanosine (G) self-assembly, leading in aqueous solution and in the presence of metal cations to the formation of G-quadruplexes, represents an intriguing topic both for the biological correlation with telomerase activity and for the nano-technological applications, as de...
