Abstract

The novel property of reversible regulation of parallel type G-quadruplexes with moderate temperature changes was discovered in thermoresponsive hydrogels using a universal chiroptical spectrophotometer 1 (UCS-1). This study is the first to report the regulation of the ssDNA steric structure by using a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) gel.
