G-quadruplexes (GQs) are non-canonical DNA structures encoded by G-flipons with potential roles in gene regulation and chromatin structure. Here, we explore the role of G-flipons in tissue specification. We present a deep learning-based framework for...
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are promising biomarkers for cancer diagnosis, while detecting CTCs in clinical samples is still challenging due to the scarcity and heterogeneity of CTCs. Herein, a triple-mode sensing platform based on an antifouling ...
Fast, sensitive, and portable detection of genetic modification contributes to agricultural security and food safety. Here, we developed RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a-G-quadruplex colorimetric assays that can combine with intelligent recognition by deep learning...
DNA is a complex molecule carrying the instructions an organism needs to develop, live and reproduce. In 1953, Watson and Crick discovered that DNA is composed of two chains forming a double-helix. Later on, other structures of DNA were discovered an...

The human telomeric DNA G-quadruplex follows a kinetic partitioning folding mechanism. The underlying folding landscape potentially has many minima separated by high free-energy barriers. However, using current theoretical models to characterize this...
Recently, mimic enzymes have obtained particular interest by their high activity, stability, and biocompatibility. In this work, by coupling copper hydroxide nanozyme and G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme to form a double-integrated mimic enzyme, a visual, ...
The detection of uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) activity is pivotal for its biochemical studies and the development of drugs for UDG-related diseases. Here, we explored an integrated DNA structure switch for high sensitive detection of UDG activity. Th...
We describe a sequence-based computational model to predict DNA G-quadruplex (G4) formation. The model was developed using large-scale machine learning from an extensive experimental G4-formation dataset, recently obtained for the human genome via G4...
Sensitive and reliable detection of DNA methyltransferase (MTase) is of great significance for both early tumor diagnosis and therapy. In this study, a simple, label-free and sensitive DNA MTase-sensing method was developed on the basis of a nicking ...
Split G-quadruplexes are considered excellent tools for biosensing and diagnostics, but splitting G-quadruplexes may often lead to a loss of function, limiting their effectiveness. This study aims to identify and classify functional split G-quadruple...
