In vivo base editing enables precise, single-nucleotide changes to DNA without double-strand breaks. A recent application in ...

Our genomic DNA is comprised of four bases—cytosine (C), thymine (T), guanine (G) and adenosine (A). These bases join together into approximately 3 billion different base pairs, arranged in a ...

However, under certain conditions, a single strand of DNA can fold into a G-quadruplex (G4) structure, which looks like a knot. These knots often form in regions with many guanine (G) bases.
