yDNA: A New Geometry for Size‐Expanded Base Pairs*

Abstract
Neue Paarung: Die Insertion eines Benzolrings in den natürlichen Adeninheterocyclus führt zum Analogon yA und zur Bildung von Basenpaaren, die 2.4 Å breiter sind als die natürlichen Basenpaare (siehe Struktur). Die Paare yA⋅T und T⋅yA können sich zu kooperativen Helices zusammenlagern, die deutlich stabiler als natürliche DNA sind. Demzufolge könnte yDNA ein Kandidat für ein neues genetisches System sein.
