A NMR structural study of quadruplex [d(TGGGT)]4 containing a modified thymine is reported. The three dimensional structure of the complex is very similar to those of other parallel stranded quadruplexes. The modified thymines (T*) are able, at least in the minimised structures, to form a tetrad containing extra H-bonds through the hydroxyl groups. Nevertheless, in this new tetrad the modified thymines are slightly open towards the solvent respect to the unmodified T-tetrad.
