Abstract
Cyclohexene nucleic acids contain a cyclohexene ring instead of the normal β-D-2′-deoxyribose. The cyclohexene oligonucleotide GTGTACAC was synthesized using phosphoramidite chemistry and standard protecting groups. Crystals of GTGTACAC were obtained at 289 K by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique. The crystals diffract to 1.7 Å resolution and belong to the trigonal space group R3, with unit-cell parameters a = 41.434, c = 66.735 Å. © 2005 International Union of Crystallography.
