Triplex with a twist : Through metadynamics calculations, the thrombin binding aptamer (TBA) has been shown to adopt a stable G‐triplex structural motif, in addition to the usual G‐quadruplex (see scheme). An 11‐mer oligonucleotide was also shown to form a stable G‐triplex, whose structural and thermodynamic properties have been characterized.
