dsXNAbuilder

DNA, RNA and DNA:RNA duplexes from the 3DNA fiber models, with modXNA chemistry on either strand, ready for modeling and simulation.

Sequence

Notation
A C G T Ubases; plain letters take the chemistry of the model strand
d(…) r(…)DNA / RNA group
dA rA2′-deoxy / ribo nucleotide
mA2′-O-methyl (2′-OMe) ribose
fA2′-fluoro-2′-deoxyribose (2′-F)
eA2′-O-methoxyethyl (2′-MOE) ribose
+A or lALNA, locked nucleic acid (2′-O,4′-C-methylene-bridged ribose)
* *1 *2phosphorothioate before the next residue (*1 keeps OP2, *2 keeps OP1)
C^5mCmodified base (modXNA code or alias)
{PS1/MOE/RUU}explicit backbone/sugar/base triplet from the residue library
-at the ends of a line: no nucleotide (overhang); between nucleotides: abasic site

Strand 2 is typed 3′→5′, so a linkage written in it belongs to the residue on its left. Mismatches are allowed.

Helix model (3DNA fiber)

    Advanced: Amber/modXNA topology package

    For Amber users: a tleap input with the force field and the modXNA parameters of the modified nucleotides, which builds the topology. Minimization and simulation are up to you.
