Effects of G-Quadruplex Topology on Electronic Transfer Integrals

  • Wenming Sun,
  • Daniele Varsano and
  • Rosa Di Felice

15 October 2016

G-quadruplex is a quadruple helical form of nucleic acids that can appear in guanine-rich parts of the genome. The basic unit is the G-tetrad, a planar assembly of four guanines connected by eight hydrogen bonds. Its rich topology and its possible re...
