State of the art molecular dynamic simulations show that simple modification of the sugar puckering of 2'deoxyriboses leads to a reversible change between two stable forms of DNA which resemble very closely the canonical A and B duplex forms. Analysis of the A-type and B-type structures reveals interesting, and previously unknown features of these two families of conformations of the DNA.
最新的分子动力学模拟表明,对2'-脱氧核糖的糖环构象进行简单修饰会导致DNA的两种稳定形式之间发生可逆变化,这两种形式与典型的A和B双链体形式非常相似。对A型和B型结构的分析揭示了这两类DNA构象中有趣的、此前未知的特征。
