Abstract
Here, we developed a reverse transcriptase based method (RTase stop assay) to characterize quadruplex formations in guanine-rich RNAs with high sensitivity and specificity. By using the RTase stop assay, we also revealed a plausible structural polymorphism in biologically important RNAs. The RTase stop assay would provide helpful insight into RNA quadruplex structures and functions, together with other analytical methods, including various footprinting techniques. 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
