Figure 7.

Backbone carbon atoms of an unmodified nucleotide compared to the DPA phosphoramidite. The backbone carbon atom in DPA (grey circle) can resemble either (A) a C3′ atom when viewed from the 3′ end or (B) a C4′ atom when viewed from the 5′ end. Accordingly, the distance distributions were analyzed between C3′–C3′ and C4′–C4′ backbone atoms of the residues that are replaced by DPA in the DPA–DNA duplexes.
