Structural characterisation of the bromouracil.guanine base pair mismatch in a Z-DNA fragment.
The deoxyoligonucleotide d(BrU-G-C-G-C-G) was crystallised at pH 8.2 and its structure analysed by X-ray diffraction. The unit cell, of dimensions a = 17.94, b = 30.85, c = 49.94A contains four DNA duplexes in space group P2(1)2(1)2(1). The duplexes are in the Z conformation, with four Watson-Crick...
