Visualizing transient Watson–Crick-like mispairs in DNA and RNA duplexes
Open accessAbstract
Rare tautomeric and anionic nucleobases are believed to have fundamental biological roles, but their prevalence and functional importance has remained elusive because they exist transiently, in low abundance, and involve subtle movements of protons that are difficult to visualize. Using NMR relaxation dispersion, we show here that wobble dG•dT and rG•rU mispairs in DNA and RNA duplexes exist in dynamic equilibrium with short-lived, low-populated Watson-Crick-like mispairs that are stabilized by rare enolic or anionic bases. These mispairs can evade Watson-Crick fidelity checkpoints and form with probabilities (10(-3) to 10(-5)) that strongly imply a universal role in replication and translation errors. Our results indicate that rare tautomeric and anionic bases are widespread in nucleic acids, expanding their structural and functional complexity beyond that attainable with canonical bases.

Tautomerisation in DNA has been experimentally observed using NMR relaxation dispersion, where hairpin DNA duplex structures were observed to interchange between a wobble G-T and a Watson-Crick-like structure via tautomerisation or ionisation.
“More recently, tautomerisation in DNA has been experimentally observed using NMR relaxation dispersion.Here, hairpin DNA duplex structures were observed to interchange between a wobble G-T and a Watson-Crick-like structure via tautomerisation (neutral) or ionisation (charged) 9,51 .”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
