Wolfram Saenger's book "Principles of Nucleic Acid Structure" may be a good
reference to understand nucleotide/nucleic acid conformation.

Subject: [ccp4bb]: protein topology diagram, references for DNA and
sugar conformation

I have two questions,

1) which program is used to plot the protein's topology diagram and where
I can get it.

2) anybody can point out some reference papers or good textbooks regarding
the DNA and sugar conformation? I am analyzing the structure of a DNA
molecule and need to understand some technical terms like "shear"
"stretch" "stagger" "C2'-endo" etc.

Many thanks.
