Analysis of nucleic acid double helix geometry

Title ETS-1(331-440)+GGAA DUPLEX
PDB code 1K79   (PDB summary)
NDB code PD0260 (NDB atlas)
Duplex length 14 base pairs
Protein Ets-1, Transcription Factor, DNA binding domain: Alpha-helix, DNA binding domain: Helix-turn-helix

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.

Strand 1    5' A2 G3 T4 G5 C6 C7 G8 G9 A10 A11 A12 T13 G14 T15 3'
Strand 2    3' T15 C14 A13 C12 G11 G10 C9 C8 T7 T6 T5 A4 C3 A2 5'

Warning
  2 base(s) in syn conformation detected.
  Helix parameters and curvilinear axis from CURVES are meaningless (see Help).

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.
