The study of G-quadruplexes (G4s) in a cellular context has demonstrated links between these nucleic acid secondary structures, gene expression, and DNA replication. Ligands that bind to the G4 structure therefore present an excellent opportunity for influencing gene expression through the targeting of a nucleic acid structure rather than sequence. Here, we explore cyclic peptides as an alternative class of G4 ligands. Specifically, we describe the development of de novo G4-binding bicyclic peptides selected by phage display. Selected
