The single-crystal x-ray analysis of orthorhombic CATGGCCATG has revealed a previously unrecognized mode of intrinsic bending in DNA. The decamer shows a smooth bend of 23⚬over the central four base pairs, caused by preferential stacking interactions at guanine bases. The bend is produced by a roll of base pairs along their long axes, in a directio...
