« on: July 23, 2010, 05:30:10 am »
Dear 3DNA users,

                Can anyone tell me what methodology ( mathematics) 3DNA using for calculating sugar puckering in nucleotides ( any reference ) ?.

Thanks in advance

Sincerely

The reference is: Altona, C. & Sundaralingam, M. (1972) "Conformational analysis of the sugar ring in nucleosides and nucleotides. A new description using the concept of pseudorotation." J. Am. Chem. Soc. 94, 8205-8212. See the SHCNAaP paper for further details; as mentioned in Section SCHNAaP/SCHNArP of the forum, [mono:2tedyoak]analyze[/mono:2tedyoak] in 3DNA is derived directly from SCHNAaP.

HTH,

Xiang-Jun
