“…[ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ] Recently, non‐canonical nucleic acids structures, such as G‐quadruplexes (G4Qs), have also been recognized as promising therapeutic targets. [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ] The structure of G4Qs is characterized by the stacking of two or more planar arranges of G‐tetrads which are stabilized by lateral Hoogsteen‐type hydrogen bonds and by the coordination of a monovalent cation, such as K + (Figure 1 ). [11] Depending on the orientation of the G‐tetrades, the structure of G4Qs can be parallel (with four G‐tetrades in the same orientation), antiparallel (with two G‐tetrades in opposite orientation with respect to the other two), or hybrid (with one G‐tetrade in opposite orientation with respect to the other three) and further distinguished by their loop position (for example, antiparallel basket or chair conformation as well as different types of hybrid structures).…”
