Figure 1

Calladine–Drew representation of parameters describing the position of two successive base pairs relative to each other (shift, slide, rise, tilt, roll, twist) and parameters that characterize the location of a base pair relative to the helix axis (x/y-displacement, inclination, tip). Figures depict positive values of designated parameters as defined in Blackburn and Gait (2).
