Quantum dancing of the wobble G•T(U/5BrU) nucleobase pairs and its biological roles

This paper represents generalization of the novel tautomerization mechanism of the G•T/G•U nucleobase pairs – quantum transformation of the standard wobble G•T(w)/G•U(w) base pairs into the Watson–Crick-like (WC) structures: G•T(w)/G•U(w)→G•T*(WC)/G•U*(WC)→G*•T(WC)/G*•U(WC) (here * defines the mutag...
