RNAs to be mainly well-structured with extensive A-form duplex regions (see Section 5.9). 

Sugar conformation Cs-endo C -endo Ca-endo/Ca-endo 

Major groove Narrow, deep Wide, deep Rat 

Minor groove Broad, shallow Narrow, deep Narrow, deep 

RNA differs from DNA in that every T is replaced t y U, which has one less methyl group, and the backtxme sugar is ribose Instead of deoxyrtbose. Double helical RNA adopts the Aform geometry. The repeat unit of Z-ONA is a dinucleotide, necessitating two values of each angular parameter. adopts a range of values in Z-DNA.
