Figure 3
Reconstructed electron density of one c repeat of B-DNA (a) with a fixed envelope consisting of a circular cylinder with a helical groove of volume 10% of the cylinder, and (b) with a starting cylindrical envelope with the 2D shrink-wrap algorithm applied. Two base pairs of DNA are also shown. Figure obtained using Chimera (Pettersen et al., 2004) with electron density cut at 1σ. |
