Abstract
In order to crystallographically study the hydration of the major groove (convex surface) of Z‐DNA, the oligonucleotide d(CGCGCG) has been synthesized. Single crystals were grown by vapor diffusion using the hanging‐drop and sitting‐drop methods for X‐ray studies and by batch crystallization and evaporation within silicon tubes for neutron studies. Hexagonal crystals were obtained without the use of duplex‐stabilizing polyamines and at an acid pH. X‐ray data collected at room temperature (1.5 Å resolution; unit‐cell parameters a = 17.90, b = 30.59, c = 44.61 Å) and at 100 K (1 Å resolution; a = 17.99, b = 30.98, c = 44.07 Å) and neutron data collected at room temperature (1.6 Å resolution; a = 18.00, b = 31.16, c = 44.88 Å) indicate that the DNA is in the Z‐form packing in space group P212121.
