ID	Method	pH	Temperature	Details
1	VAPOR DIFFUSION, HANGING DROP	7.5	293	Racemic DNA mixture, HEPES, calcium chloride, PEG400 For crystallization, we used four strands 1) d(CGCTATAATGCG) with L-sugars 2) d(CGCATTATAGCG) with L-sugars and 3) d(CGCTATAATGCG) with D-sugars 4) d(CGCATTATAGCG) with D-sugars Enantio-pure DNA solutions were prepared first by de-naturation followed by slow cooling down process to ensure proper folding of the hetero-duplex formed between the non-self complementary strands. After slow-annealing, the enantiopure solutions were mixed in equimolar ratio and this racemic DNA mixture was used for crystallization.
