Name
G-quadruplex RNA binding
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
G quadruplex binding, G quartet RNA binding, G quartet binding, G-quartet binding
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Binding to a G-quadruplex RNA structure, in which groups of four guanines adopt a flat, cyclic hydrogen-bonding arrangement known as a guanine tetrad. Source: PMID:19330720, PMID:18568163, PMID:18294969
Comment
The structures of RNA and DNA G quartets differ regarding sugar conformation so that a protein binding to the RNA structure might not bind to the DNA structure.
