Abstract excerpt
Noncanonical four-stranded DNA structures known as G-quadruplexes (G4s) play crucial roles in gene regulation and have recently been identified as hotspots for single-nucleotide variations (SNVs). In the cMyc proto-oncogene promoter, the Pu27 G4 element serves as a key transcriptional switch, yet its susceptibility to SNVs and the resulting molecular consequences remain unclear. Here, we systematically analyze...
