G-Quadruplex Structures in 16S rRNA Regions Correlate with Thermal Adaptation in Prokaryotes

Bo Lyu, Kangkang Niu, Deborah M. Anderson, Qili Feng, Qisheng Song

This study finds that G-quadruplex structures in 16S rRNA regions correlate with thermal adaptation in prokaryotes, showing higher stability in thermophilic species.

DNA 5-methylcytosine regulates genome-wide formation of G-quadruplex structures

Kangkang Niu, Lijun Xiang, Xiaoyu Li, Jin Li, Yuanli Li, Chu Zhang, Junpeng Liu, Xiaojuan Zhang, Yuling Peng, Guanfeng Xu, Hui Xiang, Hao Wang, Qisheng Song, Qili Feng

This study shows that DNA 5-methylcytosine methylation reduces G-quadruplex formation, affecting gene transcription and linking epigenetic regulation to genome structure.
