We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

The structure of a complementary hybrid duplex of RNA and DNA has been, determined by X-ray crystallography. A ten residue DNA oligonucleotide of, sequence 5'-G-G-C-G-C-C-C-G-A-A-3' was annealed to complementary RNA, (5'-u-u-c-g-g-g-c-g-c-c-3') and crystallized, producing tetragonal, crystals that diffract to 2.3 A resolution. The hybrid adopts a geometry, that is neither strictly A nor B-form, rather the helix possesses, qualities of both, reminiscent of spectroscopic descriptions of a hybrid, conformation, or H-form. All of the ribonucleotides maintain the C3'-endo, conformation seen in A-form, while both C3'-endo and C2'-endo, conformations are found in the deoxyribonucleotides. The minor groove, width (8.5 to 10.5 A) is intermediate between standard values for A (11 A), and B-form (7.4 A) DNA. The global parameters rise and base-pairs tilt (or, inclination) are like that of A-DNA, however the slide and x displacement, (Dx) are more like that of A-RNA, thus giving the hybrid a unique, conformation. In addition, the 10-mer crystallizes in a manner that allows, the formation of dimers that stack end-to-end, thereby providing a glimpse, of how an extended (20 base-pair) helix of RNA-DNA hybrid might appear., This duplex sequence was selected for study because it is specifically, recognized by the ribonuclease H function of HIV reverse transcriptase. A, structure of a substrate of this enzyme is of potential value in, understanding requirements for the selectivity of this important drug, target. The minor groove of the hybrid duplex, lined with the 2-OH of the, ribose rings, is the single distinguishing characteristic of the RNA/DNA, hybrid, undoubtedly an important structural feature conferring, selectivity.
