Synthesis of a Single G-Quartet Platform in Water
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For over 50 years the G-quartet has been a defining self-assembled structure in biology and non-covalent synthesis. It is shown here for the first time that the G-quartet is isolatable in water in the absence of stabilizing G-quartet stacking or cations through the construction of a phosphate-linked template-assembled synthetic G-quartet. Synthetic design has facilitated preservation of the guanine base, ribose sugar, and phosphate components with correct linkage chemistry relative to G-quadruplex DNA. Thus, a minimal synthetic model of G-quadruplex DNA, as in that associated with human gene promoter or telomere regions, is represented by this system. An application as a probe for interactions between G-quadruplex DNA and potential anticancer therapeutical binding ligands is demonstrated. Binding constants of 10(5)-10(7) M(-1) magnitude and 1:1 stoichiometries for TMPyP4, piper, and azatrux ligands were determined, whereas perturbations in BSU1051 and BRACO19 ligand signal were not observed. These data suggest a unique test for critical end-stacking interactions at the exclusion of intercalative or looping interactions for G-quadruplex binding ligands.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
