G-四链体稳定性的热力学研究是对通过NMR或X射线晶体学获得的结构的必要补充。对四链体折叠的能量学的理解为四链体形成和反应性的物理解释提供了必要的基础。虽然热变性方法最常用于评估四链体稳定性,但也可以使用等温滴定方法研究折叠。G-四链体折叠与特异性阳离子结合紧密耦合。我们在这里描述的协议,用于监测阳离子驱动的四链体折叠过渡,使用圆二色性或吸光度,并使用荧光指示剂的自由和结合的阳离子的分布的测定。这些方法共同提供了在恒温下四链体折叠的洞察力,并表征阳离子结合和折叠之间的联系。
Thermodynamic studies of G-quadruplex stability are an essential complement to structures obtained by NMR or x-ray crystallography. An understanding of the energetics of quadruplex folding provides a necessary foundation for the physical interpretation of quadruplex formation and reactivity. While thermal denaturation methods are most commonly used to evaluate quadruplex stability, it is also possible to study folding using isothermal titration methods. G-quadruplex folding is tightly coupled to specific cation binding. We describe here protocols for monitoring the cation-driven quadruplex folding transition using circular dichroism or absorbance, and for determination of the distribution of free and bound cation using a fluorescence indicator. Together these approaches provide insight into quadruplex folding at constant temperature, and characterize the linkage between cation binding and folding.
