G-quadruplex RNA binding
ID: GO_0002151
Class
Binding to a G-quadruplex RNA structure, in which groups of four guanines adopt a flat, cyclic hydrogen-bonding arrangement known as a guanine tetrad.
The structures of RNA and DNA G quartets differ regarding sugar conformation so that a protein binding to the RNA structure might not bind to the DNA structure.
