Thanks for your reply.

Hi, I am analyzing a protein-DNA complex in which DNA is severely curved. The protein could constrain negative DNA supercoils in vitro and I am trying to find some clues to the structural basis of DNA supercoiling from the parameters of DNA calculated by 3dna (listed as following).
Is it possible to infer whether the supercoils come from DNA unwinding or writhing (e.g., the DNA fragment in nucleosome) from these parameters? If so, how to make it? And the DNA has an average h-twist value of 35.29 and thus a h=(360/35.29)=10.20 bp/turn. Does it means that the DNA is over-twisted, since h is less than 10.5 bp/turn?
Thanks

1. The list of the parameters given below correspond to the 5' to 3' direction
   of strand I and 3' to 5' direction of strand II.

2. All angular parameters, except for the phase angle of sugar pseudo-
   rotation, are measured in degrees in the range of [-180, +180], and all
   displacements are measured in Angstrom units.
