Paper doi abstract bibtex Human telomeric DNA consists of tandem repeats of the sequence 5'-d(TTAGGG)-3'. Guanine-rich DNA, such as that seen at telomeres, forms G-quadruplex secondary structures. Alternative forms of G-quadruplex structures can have differential effects on activities involved in telomere maintenance. With this in mind, we analyzed the effect of sequence and length of human telomeric DNA on G-quadruplex structures by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and circular dichroism. Telomeric oligonucleotides shorter than four, 5'-d(TTAGGG)-3' repeats formed intermolecular G-quadruplexes. However, longer telomeric repeats formed intramolecular structures. Altering the 5'-d(TTAGGG)-3' to 5'-d(TTAGAG)-3' in any one of the repeats of 5'-d(TTAGGG)(4)-3' converted an intramolecular structure to intermolecular G-quadruplexes with varying degrees of parallel or anti-parallel-stranded character, depending on the length of incubation time and DNA sequence. These structures were most abundant in K(+)-containing buffers. Higher-order structures that exhibited ladders on polyacrylamide gels were observed only for oligonucleotides with the first telomeric repeat altered. Altering the sequence of 5'-d(TTAGGG)(8)-3' did not result in the substantial formation of intermolecular structures even when the oligonucleotide lacked four consecutive telomeric repeats. However, many of these intramolecular structures shared common features with intermolecular structures formed by the shorter oligonucleotides. The wide variability in structure formed by human telomeric sequence suggests that telomeric DNA structure can be easily modulated by proteins, oxidative damage, or point mutations resulting in conversion from one form of G-quadruplex to another.
