Genetic variations in G-Quadruplex forming sequences affect the transcription of human disease-related genes
2022-08-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Guanine-rich DNA strands can fold into non-canonical four-stranded secondary structures named G-quadruplexes (G4s). G4s folded in proximal promoter regions (PPR) are associated either with positive or negative transcriptional regulation. Given that single nucleotide variants (SNVs) affecting G4 folding (G4-Vars) may alter gene transcription, and that SNVs are associated with the human diseases’...
