Examples of reports generated from the NDB about torsion angles. (a) A scattergram showing the relationship of ɛ (C4′—C3′—O3′—P) versus ζ (C3′—O3′—P—O5′). The two clusters, BI and BII, are labelled. (b) A histogram for α (O3′—P—O5′—C5′) for all B-DNA. (c) A conformation wheel showing the torsion angles for structure BDJ025 (Grzeskowiak et al., 1991[link]) over the average values for all B-DNA. (d) A torsion-angle report for BDJ025.
