Structural representation of the pseudotorsional angles of RNA. (A) Definition of the η (eta: C4′i − 1, Pi, C4′i, Pi + 1) and the θ (theta: Pi, C4′i, Pi + 1, C4′i + 1) angles. (B) Definition of the η′ (eta′: C1′i − 1, Pi, C1′i, Pi + 1) and the θ′ (theta′: Pi, C1′i, Pi + 1, C1′i + 1) angles. (C) Definition of the η″ (eta″: SRFi − 1, Pi, SRFi, Pi + 1) and the θ″ (theta″: Pi, SRFi, Pi + 1, SRFi + 1) angles, where SRF stands for standard reference frame as implemented in DSSR (Lu et al. 2015).
