| Popis | Recently, Johnson et al.1 reported interesting quantumchemical computations on base stacking and base pairing energies in B-DNA and A-RNA. They deduced that “there most definitely is a quantitative correlation between the quantum mechanical gas-phase stacking data and nucleic acid stability”. Such conclusion is, in our opinion, too optimistic and oversimplified. We identified several issues questioning the validity of this statement. |
