Conserved presence of G-quadruplex forming sequences in the Long Terminal Repeat Promoter of Lentiviruses
Abstract G-quadruplexes (G4s) are secondary structures of nucleic acids that epigenetically regulate cellular processes. In the human immunodeficiency lentivirus 1 (HIV-1), dynamic G4s are located in the unique viral LTR promoter. Folding of HIV-1 LTR G4s inhibits viral transcription; stabilization...
