An increasingly comprehension of the folding intermediate states of DNA G-quadruplexes (G4s) is currently an important scientific challenge, especially for the human telomeric (h-tel) G4s-forming sequences, characterized by a highly polymorphic nature. Despite the G-triplex conformation was proposed as one of the possible folding intermediates for the antiparallel and hybrid h-tel G4s, for the parallel h-tel topology with an all-anti guanine orientation, a vertical strand-slippage involving the G-triplets was proposed in previous works through microseconds-long standard molecular dynamics simulations (MDs). Here, in order to get further insights into the vertical strand-slippage and the folding intermediate states of the parallel h-tel G4s, we have carried out a Well-Tempered Metadynamics simulation (WT-MetaD), which allowed us to retrieve an ensemble of six G4s having two/G-tetrad conformations derived by the G-triplets vertical slippage. The insights highlighted in this work are aimed at rationalizing the mechanistic characterisation of the parallel h-tel G4 folding process.
