Trajectory-averaged minor groove widths

10S (+)-trans 10R (−)-trans B-DNA
C5–G22 5.7 4.8 4.5
G*6–G21 7.2 5.3 4.1
C7–T20 8.2 6.6 5.0
T8–A19 7.7 7.0 4.5
A9–G18 5.7 5.8 2.5
C10–C17 4.3 5.5 4.2
C11–G16 3.8 3.9 4.6

Minor groove width is calculated from the indicated interstrand phosphate to phosphate distance for each structure over the 1.5–3 ns time frame. All distances are in Å.
