We employed the generalized energy-based fragmentation (GEBF) approach to investigate the gas-phase structures of B-DNA double-helices up to 10 base pairs at several theoretical levels. By comparing the results obtained using the M06-2X functional and other methods (including the B3LYP, B3LYP-vdW, and TPSS functionals), we found that the absence of stacking interactions could lead to the enlargement of the vertical distance between adjacent bases. The magnitude of this enlargement of the vertical distance quickly decreases as the length of the double-helix increases. The gas-phase stabilization of the double-helical structure of B-DNA is a cooperative effect, in which hydrogen bonding plays a more important role than stacking interaction does up to 10 base pairs.
- Base pair,
