A General Framework to Interpret Hydrogen-Deuterium Exchange Native Mass Spectrometry of G-Quadruplex DNA

G-quadruplexes (G4s) are secondary structures formed by guanine-rich oligonucleotides involved in various biological processes. However, characterizing G4s is challenging because of their structural polymorphism. Here, we establish how hydrogen-deuterium exchange native mass spectrometry (HDX/MS) can help to characterize G4 structures and dynamics in solution. We correlated the time range of... Show more
