Comprehensive Bending Classification of Nucleic Acid Double Helix Structures

Bending classification of helical axis - Other
(Last update: November 15, 2004)

Structures with a complex helical axis.

Here duplexes are compiled for which the curvilinear helical axes show the largest deviations from any of the models used for fitting. For these structures the best models have a goodness-of-fit value larger 2. Except for the superhelical structures (1aoi, 1eqz, 1f66, 1id3) most of them can nevertheless roughly be classified as straight line (1fja) or double-kink structures (1bpz, 1fjl, 1ihf. 2irf, 4crx, 5crx, 2d47). This is explained in more detail below. In the extent of bending classification these structures are included as separate tables in the no bending, slight, moderate and strong bending categories.
