The conformation of the self-complementary decamer duplex, d(ACGTATACGT)2 (TATA-duplex) has been studied by proton NMR spectroscopy. The duplex is essentially B-type, with distortions apparent at the TATA steps. These conformational distortion which may be preferable to occur in the thymine residue on the 5-side, has been investigated by unusual NOE crosspeaks.
