Table 1.

Thermodynamic parameters ^a of the m¹A MDB and TTTA MDB.

MDB	Sequence	Tm (°C)	∆H° (kcal·mol−1)	∆S° (cal·K−1·mol−1)	∆G°25 °C (kcal·mol−1)
m1A	5′-TTTm1ATTTA-3′	23.2 ± 0.6	−19 ± 2	−64 ± 6	0.12 ± 0.04
TTTA b	5′-TTTATTTA-3′	19.2 ± 0.9	−22 ± 1	−76 ± 4	0.43 ± 0.08

^aAverage values and uncertainties were obtained by three replicative measurements. ^bData for the TTTA MDB were extracted from reference [32].
