Near-atomic resolution crystal structure of an A-DNA decamer d(CCCGATCGGG): cobalt hexammine interaction with A-DNA.
The structure of the DNA decamer d(CCCGATCGGG) has been determined at 1.25 A resolution. The decamer crystallized in the tetragonal space group P4(3)2(1)2, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 44.3, c = 24.8 A and one strand in the asymmetric unit. The structure was solved by the molecular-replacement method and refined to R(work) and R(free) values of 16.3 and 18.5%, respectively, for 5969 reflec...
متن کاملCrystal structure of a DNA decamer containing a cis-syn thymine dimer.
It is well known that exposure to UV induces DNA damage, which is the first step in mutagenesis and a major cause of skin cancer. Among a variety of photoproducts, cyclobutane-type pyrimidine photodimers (CPD) are the most abundant primary lesion. Despite its biological importance, the precise relationship between the structure and properties of DNA containing CPD has remained to be elucidated....
متن کاملX-ray structure of a DNA decamer containing 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine.
We have determined the x-ray structure of a DNA fragment containing 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (G(O)). The structure of the duplex form of d(CCAGOCGCTGG) has been determined to 1.6-A resolution. The results demonstrate that GO forms Watson-Crick base pairs with the opposite C and that G(O) is in the anti conformation. Structural perturbations induced by C.G(O)anti base pairs are subtle. The struc...
متن کاملRefinement of the solution structure of the DNA decamer 5'd(CTGGATCCAG)2: combined use of nuclear magnetic resonance and restrained molecular dynamics.
The solution structure of the self-complementary DNA decamer 5'd(CTGGATCCAG)2 comprising the specific target site for the restriction endonuclease BamH1 is investigated by using nuclear magnetic resonance sectroscopy and restrained molecular dynamics. With the exception of the H5'/H5" sugar proton resonances, all the nonexchangeable proton resonances are assigned sequentially by using pure-phas...
متن کاملMolecular Structure of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (dna)
Although DNA is associated with complex biological phenomena and has many physicochemical properties not easily explained, there is no doubt that the molecule consists to a large extent of the regular, and in some ways simple structure (1-3), derived from x-ray diffraction. We will describe here briefly new data on the s t ruc turethe x-ray diffraction measurements and molecular model building ...
