DNA secondary structures: stability and function of G-quadruplex structures

open access: yesNature reviews genetics, 2012
In addition to the canonical double helix, DNA can fold into various other inter- and intramolecular secondary structures. Although many such structures were long thought to be in vitro artefacts, bioinformatics demonstrates that DNA sequences capable of

Roles of the RGG Domain and RNA Recognition Motif of Nucleolin in G-Quadruplex Stabilization

open access: yesACS Omega, 2020
G-quadruplexes have important biologic functions that are regulated by G-quadruplex-binding proteins. In particular, G-quadruplex structures are folded or unfolded by their binding proteins and affect transcription and other biologic functions.

Developing Novel G-Quadruplex Ligands: From Interaction with Nucleic Acids to Interfering with Nucleic Acid–Protein Interaction

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
G-quadruplex is a special secondary structure of nucleic acids in guanine-rich sequences of genome. G-quadruplexes have been proved to be involved in the regulation of replication, DNA damage repair, and transcription and translation of oncogenes or ...

A Simplified Laminar Flow Model for the Pultrusion of Glass Fiber/Polyethylene Terephthalate Commingled Yarns

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified thermoplastic pultrusion model is developed to predict thermal fields in glass fiber/polyethylene terephthalate (GF/PET) composites with reduced computational cost. By combining effective material homogenization, validation against literature data, and Gaussian‐process‐based optimization, the study reveals how heating limits, pulling speed,

Quadruplex nucleic acids as targets for anticancer therapeutics

open access: yes, 2017
Quadruplex nucleic acids — helical four-stranded structures known to form from guanine-rich nucleic acid sequences through Hoogsteen-type hydrogen bonding — were once just laboratory curiosities.

Feasibility of Nitrogen as a Carrier Gas for Inconel Cold Spray in Hydropower Application

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
N2, despite being nearly two orders of magnitude cheaper than He, is a feasible carrier gas for cold spray Inconel coatings in hydropower repair applications when higher gas temperature and pressure are used. Reducing powder size significantly improved cavitation resistance, while the addition of fine chromium carbide particles further enhanced erosion

Elevated levels of G-quadruplex formation in human stomach and liver cancer tissues.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Four-stranded G-quadruplex DNA secondary structures have recently been visualized in the nuclei of human cultured cells. Here, we show that BG4, a G-quadruplex-specific antibody, can be used to stain DNA G-quadruplex structures in patient-derived tissues

Exclusion of RNA-binding domains from G-quadruplex condensates by G-quadruplex ligands [PDF]

open access: yesRSC Chemical Biology
Biomolecular liquid–liquid phase separation, which forms droplets in living cells, plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene expression. Dysfunction of liquid–liquid phase separation leads to aberrant aggregates that sequester RNA-binding proteins ...
