2 Definition and Nomenclature of Base Pair Doublet Parameters
3 Dickerson Dodecamer (DD) d(cgcgaattcgcg) 2
4 CURVES calculated values
5 Dynamics of B-DNA on the Microsecond Time Scale Alberto Pe rez,f. Javier Luque and Modesto Orozco (2007) From X3DNA ε ζ, Indicator of BI or BII conformations α γ /ja CCC: $37.00 xxxx American Chemical Society
6 Deformation Energy Color code: blue, CpG; green, d(gpa); black, d(gpc); gray, d(apa); red, d(apt) steps. In average, one of the 10 central base pairs is opened (two H-bond distances greater than 4.5) every 7.3 ns (indicating an average time for individual base pair opening of around 70 ns). Opening of G-C base pairs is mediated by Na+ binding through Major groove and is in-plane motion Opening of A-T base pairs take place through increasing propeller twist, hence out-of-plane motion.
7 4ns MD simulation of d(cgcgcgcgcgcg) 2 and chemical modifications with PME by CHARMM. We analyzed trajectory by NUPARM
8 S replaces O in backbone of substituted DNA. It yields two chiral conformers of DNA PSR and PSS.

20 Similarity Index: n ex = (min (f, f ') / 1000 ) *100% i i i = 1 d(aa).d(tt) steps are rigid while d(ca).d(tg) are flexible, and structure this step depends on neighboring base pairs also.
21 Cross-strand bifurcated hydrogen bonds between successive base pairs impose structural rigidity to d(aa).d(tt) doublets
