'''A TETRAMERIC DNA STRUCTURE WITH PROTONATED CYTOSINE:CYTOSINE BASE PAIRS'''
===A TETRAMERIC DNA STRUCTURE WITH PROTONATED CYTOSINE:CYTOSINE BASE PAIRS===




==Overview==
<!--
Oligomers containing tracts of cytidine form hemiprotonated base pairs at acid pH and have been considered to be double-stranded. We have solved the structure of the DNA oligomer 5'-d(TCCCCC) at acid pH and find that it is a four-stranded complex in which two base-paired parallel-stranded duplexes are intimately associated, with their base pairs fully intercalated. The relative orientation of the duplexes is antiparallel, so that each base pair is face-to-face with its neighbours. The NMR spectrum displays only six spin systems, showing that the structure is highly symmetrical on the NMR timescale; the four strands are equivalent. A model derived by energy minimization and constrained molecular dynamics shows excellent compatibility with the observed nuclear Overhauser effects (NOEs) particularly for the very unusual inter-residue sugar-sugar NOEs H1'-H1', H1'-H2" and H1'-H4'. These NOEs are probably diagnostic for such tetrameric structures.
The line below this paragraph, {{ABSTRACT_PUBMED_8389423}}, adds the Publication Abstract to the page
(as it appears on PubMed at http://www.pubmed.gov), where 8389423 is the PubMed ID number.
