Coaxial Stacking

Example 1

 

 

        

∆G°_{37 coaxial stack} = ∆G°₃₇(Watson-Crick Stack)

 

∆G°_{37 coaxial stack} = ∆G°₃₇(AU pair followed by CG pair)

 

∆G°_{37 coaxial stack}= –2.24 kcal/mol

 

 

 

Note that at this interface, the terminal AU pair penalty would still apply when calculating the helix stability.
