An oligonucleotide (T30177) composed entirely of deoxyguanosine and thymidine has previously been shown to fold upon itself in the presence of potassium into a highly stable four-stranded DNA structure containing two stacked deoxyguanosine quartets (G4s). T30177 also protects host cells from the cytopathic effects of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). We report that this G4 oligonucleotide is the most...
