The Definition of Generalized Helicoidal Parameters and of Axis Curvature for Irregular Nucleic Acids
Abstract
An algorithm is presented which solves the problem of obtaining a rigorous helicoidal description of an irregular nucleic acid segment. Central to this approach is the definition of a function describing simultaneously the curvature of the nucleic acid segment in question and the corresponding stepwise variation of helicoidal parameters along the segment. Minimisation of this function leads to an optimal distribution of the conformational irregularity of the segment between these two components. Further, it is shown that this approach can be applied equally easily to single or double stranded nucleic acids. The results of this analysis yield both the absolute helicoidal parameters of individual bases/base pairs and the relative helicoidal parameters between successive bases/base pairs as well as the overall locus of the helical axis. The possibilities of this mathematical approach are demonstrated with the help of a computer program termed "Curves" which is applied to the study of a number of different nucleic acid structures.

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.
