More informationRNA does not adopt the classic B-DNA helix conformation when it forms a self-complementary double helix
Reason: RNA has ribose sugar ring, with a hydroxyl group (OH) If RNA in B-from conformation there would be unfavorable steric contact between the hydroxyl group, base, and phosphate backbone. RNA structure
