Cancer is a global issue majorly affecting developing countries. According to a survey, 63%
of deaths due to cancer are reported from developing countries. There are different …

Quadruplex-forming sequences are widely prevalent in human and other genomes,
including bacterial ones. These sequences are over-represented in eukaryotic telomeres …

Development of biosensing platforms plays a key role in research settings for identification
of biomarkers and in clinical applications for diagnostics. Biosensors based on nucleic acids …

DNA is one of the most fascinating biopolymers. Besides its central role as carrier of genetic
information and translation of the genetic code into proteins, DNA holds great promise as a …

Every cell in a multicellular organism has the potential to die by apoptosis, but tumour cells
often have faulty apoptotic pathways. These defects not only increase tumour mass, but also …

This review describes the structure of telomeres, the protective DNA-protein complexes at
eukaryotic chromosomal ends, and several molecular mechanisms involved in telomere …

Molecular self‐assembly is central to many processes in both biology and supramolecular
chemistry. The G‐quartet, a hydrogen‐bonded macrocycle formed by cation‐templated …

The telomere is a special functional complex at the end of linear eukaryotic chromosomes,
consisting of tandem repeat DNA sequences and associated proteins. It is essential for …

The process by which normal cells become progressively transformed to malignancy is now
known to require the sequential acquisition of mutations which arise as a consequence of …

Over 30 million cancer survivors exist worldwide. Survivors have an earlier onset and higher
incidence of chronic comorbidities, including endocrinopathies, cardiac dysfunction …
