Aminoglycosylation can enhance the G-quadruplex binding activity of epigallocatechin. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 With the aim of enhancing G-quadruplex binding activity, two new glucosaminosides (16, 18) of penta-methylated epigallocatechin were synthesized by chemical glycosylation.

G-quadruplexes and G-quadruplex ligands: targets and tools in antiviral therapy [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2018 G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical nucleic acids secondary structures that form within guanine-rich strands of regulatory genomic regions. G4s have been extensively described in the human genome, especially in telomeres and oncogene promoters; in recent years the presence of G4s in viruses has attracted increasing interest.

GNG Motifs Can Replace a GGG Stretch during G-Quadruplex Formation in a Context Dependent Manner. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 G-quadruplexes are one of the most commonly studied non-B DNA structures. Generally, these structures are formed using a minimum of 4, three guanine tracts, with connecting loops ranging from one to seven. Recent studies have reported deviation from this

Multimerization rules for G-quadruplexes [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2017 G-quadruplexes can multimerize under certain conditions, but the sequence requirements of such structures are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the ability of all possible variants of the central tetrad in a monomeric, parallel-strand G-quadruplex to form higher-order structures.

G-quadruplex organic frameworks [PDF]
Nature Chemistry, 2016 Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks often π stack into crystalline solids that allow precise spatial positioning of molecular building blocks. Inspired by the hydrogen-bonded G-quadruplexes found frequently in guanine-rich DNA, here we show that this structural motif can be exploited to guide the self-assembly of naphthalene diimide and ...
