Analysis of nucleic acid double helix geometry

Title 3D SOLUTION NMR STRUCTURE OF THE M9I MUTANT OF THE HMG-BOX D THE HUMAN MALE SEX DETERMINING FACTOR SRY COMPLEXED TO DNA
PDB code 1J47   (PDB summary)
NDB code 1J47 (NDB atlas)
Duplex length 14 base pairs
Protein Human male sex-determining factor SRY, hSRY(HMG), Transcription Factor, DNA binding domain: High mobility group

Only the nucleic acid double helix part of the structure is analysed here. Small ligands, proteins, and overhanging ends are not taken into account. Information on the complete structure is available at the Image Library Entry page and at the Sequence, Chains, Units page.

Figure 1   Three orthogonal views of the double helix (Help). Residues are colored according to the nucleotide type (Help: Color codes). The curvilinear helical axis (green) was calculated with CURVES. The double helix is oriented with respect to the principle axis of inertia of the curvilinear helical axis (see Help for further explanations). This drawing reveals immediately if there is any bending of the helical axis.


Analysis of helical axis bending


Inter base pair parameters

The six inter base pair parameters (rise, shift, slide, twist, roll, tilt) describe the translational and rotational displacement between neighbouring base pairs. See Help for further explanations.
