Basics of the quadruplex topology of human telomeric repeat sequences
Telomeres are protein–DNA structures protecting the ends of chromosomes

Structure of the quadruplex formed by the four-repeat TTAGGG human telomere DNA sequence.
The central potassium counter ion is coordinated in a bipyramidyl antiprismatic arrangement by the electronegative carbonyl groups of guanine O6

a) The K+-stabilized crystal structure b) The Na+-stabilized solution structure
The folding and appearance of the telomeric DNA sequence is fundamentally different in K+- and Na+-containing quadruplex structures
Clinical implications.
The enzyme telomerase is highly expressed only in tumour cells, enabling them to carry on replicating their chromosomes almost indefinitely. (In non-tumour cells, by contrast, telomerase is not expressed and telomeres gradually erode to the point at which cells cannot duplicate their DNA safely, and so no longer divide.) So telomerase is a promising drug target. It binds to single-stranded telomere ends, and could potentially be inhibited by drugs that compete for these ends (in their quadruplex form).
