The module provides functions to analyze nuclic acid structures, in particular
For applications of this kind of analysis see [Denning2011] and [Denning2012].
All functions take a Universe as an argument together with further parameters that specify the base or bases in question. Angles are in degrees. The functions use standard CHARMM names for nucleic acids and atom names.
