Probing the Importance of the G-Quadruplex Grooves for the Activity of the Anti-HIV-Integrase Aptamer T30923

In this paper, we report studies concerning four variants of the G-quadruplex forming anti-HIV-integrase aptamer T30923, in which specific 2′-deoxyguanosines have been singly replaced by 8-methyl-2′-deoxyguanosine residues, with the aim to exploit the methyl group positioned in the G-quadruplex groo...
