On Water Arrangements in Right- and Left-Handed DNA Structures

On Water Arrangements in Right- and Left-Handed DNA Structures

DNA requires hydration to maintain its structural integrity. Crystallographic analyses have enabled patterns of water arrangements to be visualized. We survey these water motifs in this review, focusing on left- and right-handed duplex and quadruplex DNAs, together with the i-motif. Common patterns...
