These two TASQs, the biotinylated BioCyTASQ and the clickable MultiTASQ, can be implemented for various purposes including the affinity purification of both DNA and RNA G-quadruplexes (G4s), their visualization by optical imaging (pre-targeted G4 imaging and in situ click imaging), etc., thus being highly multivalent TASQs or… MultiTASQs
