Hydrogen-bonding patterns observed in the base pairs of duplex oligonucleotides
Watson-Crick base pairing in duplex structures utilises a unique combination of hydrogen bond donors and acceptors to stabilise the association. This stability contributes to the fidelity of replication. Non-Watson-Crick base pairs, mismatches or base pairs involving chemically modified bases adopt...
