During the past several years, a number of crystal structures have been determined of fragments from fibrinogen and fibrin and, most recently, a structure of a native fibrinogen. One feature of the fibrinogen molecule that has emerged from these studies has to do with its "loose ends," segments of t

β¦ Synopsis
K-ray diffraction patterns obtained experimentally for fibers, together with their chemical structures, can be analyzed theoretically in terms of an integral equation. The partially unknown electron density function can be solved by iteration. This mathematical technique has been applied with success to study the secondary structures of DIqA fibers.

Being interested in possible effects of sequence-dependent hydration of B-DNA with mixed sequence in fibers, we performed a series of Monte Carlo calculations of hydration of polydeoxyribonucleotides in B form, considering all sequences with dinucleotide repeat. The computational results allow the t
