Well, in fact, B-DNA built with coot is slighlty C2*-endo and markedly C3*-exo. In comparison a B-DNA built with X3DNA is markedly C2*-endo. See the attached figures. I agree with Maia that this is what I would have expected. Perhaps Paul can tell us where does coot take the &quot;ideal&quot; values from?<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">does anybody know why coot and sybil (and may be 
others that I don&#39;t know about)&nbsp;generate an ideal dna with C3*-exo puckers 
instead of C2*-endo, as text books say.</font></div>
