The structure of the decadeoxyribonucleotide d(GCATGCATGC) is presented at a resolution of 1.8 A. The decamer adopts a novel double-folded structure in which the direction of progression of the backbone changes at the two thymine residues. Intra-strand stacking interactions (including an interaction between the endocylic O atom of a ribose moiety and the adjacent purine base), hydrogen bonds and cobalt-ion interactions stabilize the double-folded structure of the single strand. Two such double-folded strands come together in the crystal to form a dimer. Inter-strand Watson-Crick hydrogen bonds form four base pairs. This portion of the decamer structure is similar to that observed in other previously reported oligonucleotide structures and has been dubbed a `bi-loop'. Both the double-folded single-strand structure, as well as the dimeric bi-loop structure, serve as starting points to construct models for triplet-repeat DNA sequences, which have been implicated in many human diseases.
