Predicting DNA duplex stability from the base sequence.
We report the complete thermodynamic library of all 10 Watson-Crick DNA nearest-neighbor interactions. We obtained the relevant thermodynamic data from calorimetric studies on 19 DNA oligomers and 9 DNA polymers. We show how these thermodynamic data can be used to calculate the stability and predict the temperature-dependent behavior of any DNA duplex structure from knowledge of its base sequen...
متن کاملDisentangling the Role of Tetranucleotide in the Sequence-Dependence of DNA Conformation: A Molecular Dynamics Approach
Sequence-dependence of DNA conformation plays an essential role in the protein-DNA recognition process during the regulation of gene expression. Proteins recognize specific DNA sequences not only directly through contact between bases and amino acids, but also indirectly through sequencedependent conformation of DNA. To test to what extent the DNA sequence defines the DNA structure we analyzed ...
متن کاملConformation dependence of DNA exciton parentage.
Singlet electronic excitations of DNA duplex trimers and tetramers with regular homogeneous base-pair sequences ((dA)n.(dT)n and (dG)n.(dC)n, with n=3, 4) have been investigated in vacuo using semiempirical quantum chemistry in a Zerner's Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap (ZINDO) approximation. Frequencies, oscillator strengths, and single-electron assignments of many-electron transi...

this study investigates the cohesive devices used in the textbook of english for the students of psychology. the research questions and hypotheses in the present study are based on what frequency and distribution of grammatical and lexical cohesive devices are. then, to answer the questions all grammatical and lexical cohesive devices in reading comprehension passages from 6 units of 21units th...
Effect of sequence on the conformation of DNA holliday junctions.
Structures of the DNA sequences d(CCGGCGCCGG) and d(CCAGTACbr(5)UGG) are presented here as four-way Holliday junctions in their compact stacked-X forms, with antiparallel alignment of the DNA strands. Thus, the ACC-trinucleotide motif, previously identified as important for stabilizing the junction, is now extended to PuCPy, where Pu is either an adenine or guanine, and Py is either a cytosine,...
