The crystal structure of the dodecanucleotide d(CGCAAGCTGGCG) has been determined to a resolution of 2.5 A and refined to an R factor of 19.3% for 1710 reflections. The sequence crystallizes as a B-type double helix, with two G(anti).A(syn) base pairs. These are stabilized by three-center hydrogen bonds to pyrimidines that induce perturbations in base-pair geometry. The central AGCT region of the helix has a wide (greater than 6 A) minor groove.
已确定十二聚体d(CGCAAGCTGGCG)的晶体结构,分辨率为2.5埃,并针对1710个反射将其精修至R因子为19.3%。该序列以B型双螺旋形式结晶,含有两个G(反式).A(顺式)碱基对。它们通过与嘧啶的三中心氢键得以稳定,这会引起碱基对几何结构的扰动。螺旋的中央AGCT区域具有较宽(大于6埃)的小沟。
