Structure of the human telomere in Na+ solution : an antiparallel (2+2) G-quadruplex scaffold reveals additional diversity by Lim, Kah Wai, Ng, Veronica Chinn Min, Martin-Pintado, Nerea, Heddi, Brahim, Phan, Anh Tuan

“…Single-stranded DNA overhangs at the ends of human telomeric repeats are capable of adopting four-stranded G-quadruplex structures, which could serve as potential anticancer targets. Out of the five reported intramolecular human telomeric G-quadruplex structures, four were formed in the presence of K+ ions and only one in the presence of Na+ ions, leading often to a perception that this structural polymorphism occurs exclusively in the presence of K+ but not Na+. …”

The interrelation of EU law with inter se international agreements of the EU member states by Georgaki, K, Eleftheriadis, P

“…Chapter Four moves on to define the notion of ‘conflict’ between EU law and inter se agreements and provides the conceptual framework, within which it is to be grasped. Chapter Five explores the available conflict avoidance techniques, identifying two interrelated, yet distinct interpretative methods applicable to the context of this thesis: first, the principle of systemic integration, enshrined in Article 31(3)(c) of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (VCLT); and second, the principle of a consistent-with-EU-law interpretation of inter se agreements, as a special application of the principle of harmonious interpretation applied in international law. …”
