    AnnotationWe have studied the formation and structural properties of quadruplexes of the human telomeric DNA sequence G3(T2AG3)3 and related sequences in which each guanine base was replaced by an adenine base. None of these single base substitutions hindered the formation of antiparallel quadruplexes in NaCl and KCl solutions. Effect of substitution did differ, however, depending on the position of the substituted base. The A-for-G substitution in the middle quartet of the antiparallel basket scaffold led to the most distorted and least stable structures and these sequences preferred to form biomolecular quadruplexes.
