'''Crystal Structure Analysis of an RNA Heptamer'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
The crystal structure of an alternating RNA heptamer r(GUAUACA) has been, determined to 2.0 A resolution and refined to an R(work) of 17.1% and, R(free) of 18.5% using 2797 reflections. The heptamer crystallized in the, space group C222 with a unit cell of a = 25.74, b = 106.58, c = 30.26 A, and two independent strands in the asymmetric unit. Each heptamer forms a, duplex with its symmetry-related strand and each duplex contains six, Watson-Crick base pairs and 3'-end adenosine overhangs. Therefore, two, kinds of duplex (duplex 1 and duplex 2) are formed. Duplexes 1 stack on, each other forming a pseudo-continuous column, which is typical of the RNA, packing mode, while duplex 2 is typical of A-DNA packing with its termini, in abutting interactions. Overhang adenine residues stack within the, duplexes with C3'-endo sugar pucker and C2'-endo sugar pucker in duplexes, 1 and 2, respectively. A Na+ ion in the crystal lattice is water bridged, to two N1 atoms of symmetry-related A7 bases.
