Structural Investigations of Gene Promoter Region G-quadruplexes and Their Interactions with Proteins

The discovery of unique, nonduplex structures in the proximal promoter regions of genes controlling cell growth and proliferation has illuminated a new role for DNA in biology. These non-canonical G-quadruplex structures are formed in loosened guanine-rich promoter regions undergoing torsional stres...
