G-quadruplexes are nucleic-acids secondary structures that are highly abundant in the human genome. In this work,we identified a short-peptide that displays selectivity for the G-quadruplex formed in the promoter region of the oncogene c-MYC.

G-quadruplexes are nucleic-acids secondary structures that can be formed under physiological conditions. In this review, we critically present the most relevant chemical-biology methods to probe the biological functions of G-quadruplex structures.

Convertible and Constrained Nucleic Acids (C2NAs) allow for decoration and stabilization of nucleic acid secondary structures such as a duplex when α is locked in the gauche(−) conformation or hairpin when α is constrained to the gauche(+) conformation.
