Abstract excerpt
Contributions of individual interactions in the GGCGCAAGCC hairpin containing a GCAA tetraloop were studied by computer simulations using base substitutions. The G in the first tetraloop position was replaced by inosine (I) or adenosine (A), and the G in the C-G basepair closing the tetraloop was replaced by I. These substitutions eliminate particular hydrogen bonds proposed in the nuclear magnetic resonance...
