Structural study of G-rich sequences: G4, non-G4 and G-wires by Tan, Keith Wei Rong

“…With the spectroscopic techniques, we break the original assumption that only G-quadruplexes form in a G-quadruplex forming sequence by showing the presence of an unreported species, the non-G4 species. Lastly, with the aid of gel electrophoresis, we demonstrate that G-wires, another structure that can be formed by G-rich sequences are more stable than G-quadruplexes.…”
