摘要
We present a new method for building full 3-D structures of DNA sequences. A database of the conformational properties of dinucleotide steps has been compiled using X-ray crystal structures of oligonucleotides. The protocol uses these dinucleotides as building blocks to generate three dimensional structures of any required sequence in any required conformation.
