RESUMO
A search for a left-handed double helix model for B-DNA fibers has been undertaken. The model has to present good stereochemistry and also to be in agreement with X-ray and infrared data. Dihedral angles as well as atomic coordinates and calculated intensities curves are given for the best model obtained. Comparison with experimental results shows that this model must be rejected as a candidate for the representation of B-DNA fibers.
