torsion angle dynamics, simulated annealing, relaxation matrix refinements, energe minimizationNonexchangeable interproton distance restraints were obtained from the buildup of NOE cross peak volumes in NOESY data sets (55, 100, 150 and 200 ms mixing times) on the 1S-(-)-trans-anti-(BPh)G*C and the 1R-(+)-trans-anti-(BPh)G*C 11-mer DNA duplex adducts in D2O buffer at 23 and 18 sC, respectively, and bounds were set between 15% and 25% of the calculated distances using the fixed cytidine H5-H6 reference distance of 2.45 . Non-stereospecific assignments were treated with r-6 averaging. Interproton distance restraints involving exchangeable protons of the same complex were obtained from NOESY spectra (90 and 150 ms mixing times) in H2O buffer at 4 sC with bounds set between 20% and 25% of the calculated distance using the thymine imino to adenine H2 reference distance of 2.91 across an A*T base pair.VNMR
