BG-flow, a new flow cytometry tool for G-quadruplex quantification in fixed cells

Abstract Background Nucleic acids can fold into non-canonical secondary structures named G-quadruplexes (G4s), which consist of guanine-rich sequences stacked into guanine tetrads stabilized by Hoogsteen hydrogen bonding, π-π interactions, and monovalent cations. G4 structure formation and propertie...
