Description:
Models of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) having chain directions opposite to those of the Watson and Crick model offer strikingly different alternatives for DNA structures. Satisfactory models of the B and C forms of DNA have been built. Left-handed models readily form by twisting right-handed ones, and models can be bent into tight supercoils.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hopkins, R C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 Jan 16;211(4479):289-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7444467" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
