Abstract
A survey of the conformational parameters of deoxypyrimidine nucleosides and nucleotides shows that the correlation between glycosyl torsion angle and sugar pucker, which has often been considered to be well-established, does not always exist. This may be of significance when interactions between DNA and other molecules are considered.Keywords
