Guanine Quadruplex (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Nucleic acid secondary structure, DNA structure, RNA structure
01

Overview

Guanine quadruplexes are non-canonical nucleic acid structures formed from stacks of guanine tetrads, stabilized by monovalent cations. They are prevalent in telomeric regions and gene promoters, playing significant roles in gene regulation, telomere maintenance, and genome stability. Their involvement in controlling cell growth pathways makes them promising targets for anticancer therapies.
