Abstract excerpt
A DNA G-quadruplex (G4) formed at the oncogene c-MYC promoter region functions as a gene silencer. Due to its high stability at physiological K(+) concentrations, its thermodynamics and kinetic properties have not been characterized in physiological solution conditions. In this work, we investigated the unfolding and folding transitions of single c-MYC G4 and several of its truncated or point mutants at 100 mM...
