== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
DNA can adopt many other structures beyond the canonical B-form double helix. There has been a growing interest in using non-canonical base pairs to provide structural diversity for designing DNA architectures for nanotechnology applications. We recently described the crystal structure of d(ACTCGGATGAT) which forms a tetraplex through parallel-stranded homobase pairs and nucleobase intercalation. Here, we examine the structural implications of the homo-pyrimidine base pair within this motif. We have determined crystal structures of two variants that differ from the original structure in the homo-pyrimidine base pairs and number of d(YGA) motifs. Our results show that the intercalation-locked tetraplex motif is predictable and that the substitution of C-C base pairs for T-T base pairs introduces asymmetry to the homoduplex. This hasimplications for utilizing d(YGA) motifs in DNA crystal design and may provide a basis for understanding local structures associated with repeat expansions.
