General discussions (Q&As) / helical parameters for damged conformation of the DNA

« on: November 02, 2016, 08:12:11 am »

Hi xiangjun,
I have obtained helical parameters for damaged DNA from trajectory by using 3DNA, there are three mismatched T:T pairs and a bend in the DNA. However when I calculated the averages have got large deviations in the damaged regions. Would you please check my plot  and suggest me whether these kind of deviations are allowed or not. Where shall we find the basic definitions of all these parameters ?
Thanks in Advance.

w3DNA -- web interface to 3DNA / helical parameters for damged conformation of the DNA

Dear experts,
I am trying to get helical parameters for a DNA model. It has two missing residues in the middle and are modelled in VMD. When I have uploaded the structure in the server it is showing block representation properly. But while generating parameters,  It is giving for only properly paired bases i.e due to model construction problem newly added residues are bit far when compared other paired base. Is there any way that I can obtain parameters for all the bases in the structure.
Thanks in advance !
