Analysis of nucleic acid double helix geometry

Title INTERFERON REGULATORY FACTOR 1 (IRF-1) COMPLEX WITH DNA
PDB code 1IF1   (PDB summary)
NDB code PDR035 (NDB atlas)
Duplex length 13 base pairs
Protein Interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1), Transcription factor, DNA binding domain: Helix-turn-helix, tryptophan cluster

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' G200 A201 G202 A203 A204 G205 T206 G207 A208 A209 A210 G211 T212 3'
Strand 2    3' C225 T224 C223 T222 T221 C220 A219 C218 T217 T216 T215 C214 A213 5'

Warning
  1 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.
