The crystal structure of the RNA dodecamer 5'-GGACUUUGGUCC-3' has been, determined from X-ray diffraction data to 2.6 A resolution. This oligomer, forms an asymmetric double helix in the crystal. Four consecutive, non-Watson-Crick base-pairs are formed in the middle of the duplex, including the first intrahelical U-U (or T-T) pairs observed in an, oligonucleotide crystal structure. Two different conformations of U-U, pairs are observed in the context of the surrounding sequence. One of, these pairs is highly twisted, allowing a bound water to bridge across, strands in the major groove. The crystal packing illustrates a new form of, RNA helix-helix interaction.
