Widening of the major groove in the TSMC RNA containing a CC mismatch. (A) Surface representation of the structure of TSMC and (B) model of an RNA, containing a GC Watson–Crick base pair in place of the CC mismatch, and a fully A-form stem. The CC mismatch in A and the corresponding GC base pair in B are colored blue.
