Roles of G4-DNA and G4-RNA in Class Switch Recombination and Additional Regulations in B-Lymphocytes

Ophelie Deze et al.

Summary: Mature B cells utilize class switch recombination (CSR) to diversify immunoglobulin (Ig) production, facilitated by activation-induced deaminase (AID) targeting cytosines in transcribed targeted S regions. G-rich sequences in S regions form canonical G-quadruplexes (G4s) DNA structures, favoring CSR. Small molecules interacting with G4-DNA (G4 ligands) can regulate CSR either positively or negatively. The specific regulatory role of G4 structures in CSR and lymphomagenesis remains a major issue in understanding immune responses.

Dynamic alternative DNA structures in biology and disease

Guliang Wang et al.

Summary: Non-B DNA structures play important roles in genetic instability and disease etiology. They affect transcription, replication, recombination, and DNA damage and repair processes. These structures can act as functional genomic elements involved in DNA replication and transcription, chromatin organization, and genome stability. Recent studies have also revealed their role in triggering error-generating DNA repair processes, contributing to genetic variation.

Emerging roles of i-motif in gene expression and disease treatment

Xiaoqing Luo et al.

Summary: i-motifs, as non-canonical secondary structures of cytosine-rich nucleic acids, can form under specific conditions. They have been identified in the human genome and play important roles in biological regulation. Due to their physicochemical properties, i-motif structures have become new targets for drug development. This review discusses the characteristics and mechanisms of i-motifs located in gene promoters, the interaction with small molecule ligands, their effects on gene expression, diseases associated with i-motifs, and recent advances in their applications.

Crystal structure of a three-tetrad, parallel, K+-stabilized human telomeric G-quadruplex at 1.35 Å resolution

E. V. Chen et al.

Summary: The crystal structure of the G-rich human telomeric DNA Tel22 has been determined at 1.35 angstrom resolution in space group P6. Tel22 forms a non-canonical DNA structure called the G-quadruplex. The structure of Tel22 displays clear density for polyethylene glycol and two potassium ions, indicating their role in stabilizing the crystal contacts.

G-Quadruplexes in c-MYC Promoter as Targets for Cancer Therapy

Barbara Bahls et al.

Summary: Cancer is a societal burden that requires innovative approaches due to the toxic side effects and poor selectivity of conventional chemotherapeutic agents. Uncontrolled proliferation of cancer cells is caused by mutations, deletions, or amplifications in genes encoding for proteins that regulate cell growth and division, such as c-MYC. Directly targeting the c-MYC protein has been unsuccessful, but the exploration of G-quadruplex structures in the c-MYC promoter region has shown promise in downregulating the transcription of this oncogene. In this article, we will overview the significant advancements made in the discovery of a new class of anticancer drugs that target G-quadruplexes in the c-MYC promoter of cancer cells.

Non-G Base Tetrads

Nuria Escaja et al.

Summary: Tetrads are arrangements of four nucleobases commonly used to stabilize nucleic acid structures. In addition to the well-known G-quadruplex, non-G tetrads formed by different nucleobases have been observed in experimental structures. They are mostly found in the context of G-quadruplex structures but also occur in other unusual four-stranded structures.

G-quadruplexes in bacteria: insights into the regulatory roles and interacting proteins of non-canonical nucleic acid structures

Rachel R. Cueny et al.

Summary: G-quadruplexes (G4s) are stable, non-canonical structures that can form in nucleic acids. They play important roles in regulating cellular processes, but their functions in bacteria are still not well understood. This review discusses the prevalence of bacterial G4s, the proteins that bind and unwind them, and the processes they regulate.

Summary: The current in silico study revealed the significant prevalence and conservation of G-quadruplex-forming sequences (G4 motifs) in cis-regulatory regions of pathogenic genomes, as well as significant links between G4 motifs and target sites of transcriptional regulators in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Transcription factors related to virulence were found to have G4 motifs in their target regulatory regions. Overall, the study applies positional-functional relationship computation to explore the cis-regulation of G-quadruplex structures in pathogenic bacteria.

Differential Chromosome- and Plasmid-Borne Resistance of Escherichia coli hfq Mutants to High Concentrations of Various Antibiotics

Lidia Gaffke et al.

Summary: The Hfq protein is essential for the survival of plasmid-containing Escherichia coli cells against high concentrations of certain antibiotics, while it results in low resistance to high levels of kanamycin when the resistance marker is chromosome-borne. The mechanism by which Hfq influences survival against high doses of antibiotics remains to be determined.
