Suppression of Gene Expression by G-Quadruplexes in Open Reading Frames Depends on G-Quadruplex Stability

Suppressing the urge to translate: Sequences with the potential to form G‐quadruplexes were identified in the open reading frames of E. coli genes. These sequences were found to form parallel G‐quadruplexes and to suppress translation (see picture) of the mRNAs into proteins both in vitro and in cel...
