iDNA predicts and displays the static and dynamic structures of DNA. The static structure is a equilibrium conformation predicted from the base sequence using a helicoidal or DNA bending rule. The dynamic structures are samples from a distribution about the equilibrium structure with user specified standard deviations in the helicoidal parameters. iDNA is a descendent of ViewDNA, Augur, jgen and mknad.

Single Trajectory: enter a base sequence, select a helicoidal rule, leave the other settings alone and press the Execute button.

Processing time increases with sequence length and the number of trajectories but it is much less than a minute if yours is the only request. It may take longer to get your results because of network delays.

Multiple Trajectories: bouquets are generated only if the size is more than 1 and at least one standard deviation is greater than zero.
