One of the fundamental issues in the design of thermotropic and lyotropic LC monomers and polymer assemblies with additional functional properties is the compatibility of the functional element(s).

Some regions of the human genome where the DNA can fold into unusual three-dimensional structures called G-quadruplexes (G4s) show signs that they are preserved by natural selection. When G4s are ...

When regions of the human genome where the DNA can fold into unusual three-dimensional structures called G-quadruplexes (G4s) are located in regulatory sequences or other functional, but non-protein ...
