Abstract
A molecular dynamics (MD) study of (dG) 6 · (dC) 6 including counter ions and 292 water molecules was made. The hydrogen bonding pattern and propeller twist angles for the mini-helix are reported as averages for times spanning 21–30, 31–40, 41–50, and 51–60 ps. The propeller twist angles range from 18° to 38°. Bifurcated and interstrand neighboring base (twisted) hydrogen bonding patterns were found.
