Periodic Reporting for period 1 - QAPs (G-Quadruplex-associated proteins (QAPs) and their role in transcriptional regulation)

Structure dictates function in many aspects of biology. In addition to the well-known DNA double-helix made from A, C, T and G nucleotides, sequences rich in G have the potential to fold into four-stranded, alternative structures known as G-quadruplexes (G4s). G4s were...
