Abstract:

The photophysical properties of stacked G-tetrads in diverse systems, including concentrated solutions of 59-guanosine monophosphate (59-GMP), polyguanylic acid (poly(G)) and the G-rich oligodeoxynucleotide sequence characteristic of human telomericDNA, are probed by ps-TRIR and compared to those of the monomeric 59-GMP.
