Abstract
Non-canonical nucleic acid structures, such as G-quadruplex (G4) and i-Motif (iM), have garnered significant research interest because of their unique structural properties and biological activities. Thousands of small molecules targeting G4/iM structures have been developed for various chemical and biological applications. In response to the growing interest in G4-targeting ligands, we launched the first G4 Ligand Database (G4LDB) in 2013. Here, we introduce G4LDB 3.0 (http://www.g4ldb.com), an upgraded version featuring extensive enhancements in content and functionality. The new version includes over 4800 G4/iM ligands and approximately 51 000 activity entries. Key upgrades include advanced search capabilities, dynamic knowledge graphs, enhanced data visualization, along with a new dynamic analysis function that automatically displays ligand structure clustering results and chemical space distribution. With these updates, G4LDB 3.0 further evolves into a comprehensive resource and valuable research tool. The significant improvements address the increasing demand for efficient data handling and user experience, highlighting the critical role of G4LDB in advancing research on G-quadruplexes and i-motifs.
