Abstract
The interaction energy for base stacking in single-stranded poly A is calculated by an ab initio MO method. The calculated value agrees well with the observed stacking enthalpy. Dispersion and charge transfer interactions are the main factors stabilizing the polynucleotide; the contribution of the former is dominant.
