Repeat units for some alternative nucleic acids with five- and six-membered ring sugar units and for some conformationally strained nucleic acids

Earlier searches using DFT had identified two isomorphic H-bonded pyrimidine base pairs B1:B2 and B3:B4 as possible repeat units for macromolecular H-bonded duplexes with a capacity to store information as in DNA. This DFT study seeks to design repeat units with suitable backbones which can hold a sequence of base pairs in desired order. A deoxyrib...
