Abstract
A large variety of non-B secondary structures can be formed between DNA and RNA. In this chapter, we focus on G-quadruplexes (G4) and R-loops, which can have a close structural interplay. In recent years, increasing evidence pointed to the fact that they can strongly influence each other in vivo, both having physiological and pathological roles in normal and cancer cells. Here, we detail specific and accurate methods for purification of BG4 and S9.6 antibodies, and their subsequent use in immunofluorescence microscopy, enabling single-cell analysis of extent and localization of G4s and R-loops.
期刊介绍：
The critically acclaimed laboratory standard for almost 50 years, Methods in Enzymology is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry. Each volume is eagerly awaited, frequently consulted, and praised by researchers and reviewers alike. Now with over 500 volumes the series contains much material still relevant today and is truly an essential publication for researchers in all fields of life sciences, including microbiology, biochemistry, cancer research and genetics-just to name a few. Five of the 2013 Nobel Laureates have edited or contributed to volumes of MIE.
