Regulation of DNA strand displacement using a G-quadruplex-mediated toehold

Abstract

We developed a toehold-mediated DNA strand displacement that is driven only by a G-quadruplex. This strategy is able to be regulated by adjusting the PEG volume fraction, the G-quartet number and the G-quadruplex split mode. This method will provide new possible applications for DNA nanotechnology.
