3 Canonical B DNA First determined experimentally by fiber diffraction (Arnott) C2 -endo sugar puckers High anti glycosidic angles Right handed 10 base pairs per turn Bases perpendicular to the helix axis and stacked over the axis Overall bending as much as 15 degrees Over 230 structures 25 with base mis-pairing only cause local perturbations

17 Canonical A DNA C3 -endo sugar puckers brings consecutive phosphates closer together 5.9A rather than 7.0 Glycosidic angle from high anti to anti Base pairs twisted and nearly 5A from helix axis Helix rise 2.56A rather than 3.4A Helix wider and 11 base pairs per repeat Major groove now deep and narrow Minor grove wide and very shallow

21 Base pairs are rotated in Z-DNA
22 Z-DNA Helix has left-handed sense Can be formed in vivo, given proper sequence and superhelical tension, but function remains obscure. Narrower, more elongated helix than A or B. Major "groove" not really groove Narrow minor groove Conformation favored by high salt concentrations, some base substitutions, but requires alternating purine-pyrimidine sequence. N2-amino of G H-bonds to 5' PO: explains slow exchange of proton, need for G purine. Base pairs nearly perpendicular to helix axis GpC repeat, not single base-pair P-P distances: vary for GpC and CpG GpC stack: good base overlap CpG: less overlap. Zigzag backbone due to C sugar conformation compensating for G glycosidic bond conformation Conformations: G; syn, C2'-endo C; anti, C3'-endo
