Abstract
The molecular electrostatic potentials and steric accessibilities associated with reactive sites of C-DNA are calculated for the sequences poly(dG · dC) and poly(dA · dT). The distribution of potential on the surface envelopes of the double helices are also presented. The results are compared with those obtained for B-DNA.
