Insights into the Structures of DNA Damaged by Hydroxyl Radical: Crystal Structures of DNA Duplexes Containing 5-Formyluracil
Figure 4
The minor groove widths in the fU-substituted and unmodified duplexes. The minor groove calculations were performed with the program 3DNA [20]. The widths are wider at the central regions in fUG2 and fUG3 compared with those in fUA1, fUA2, fUA3, fUA4, and fUG1 because Hoechst33258 and DAPI are bound in the grooves.
