Dear Vaibhav,
I would like to suggest 3D-NuS web-server (
https://iith.ac.in/3dnus/Quadruplex.html) for custom modelling of nucleic
acids structures including G-quadruplexes with your sequence of interest.
You can find the contact details in 3D-NuS web-server. You can contact us
for any further information related to building G-quadruplexes.
Hope the suggestions will be helpful to you.
Regards,
Sathyaseelan
