Dual fluorescent deoxyguanosine mimics for FRET detection of G-quadruplex folding†
Abstract
Replacement of deoxyguanosine (dG) nucleobases within G-tetrads of G-quadruplex folding oligonucleotides with donor (D)/acceptor (A) fluorescent 8aryldG residues provides diagnostic FRET signalling for G-quadruplex detection.
