Title: HOOGSTEEN BASE PAIRING
Post by: thebiologist on Aug 24, 2014
Hi my friends,
While I was reading my biochemistry book, I met "Hoogsteen Base Pairing". I searched the web, but I couldn't find a helpful information about it.
Can anyone help me? If you suggest a website, book, article about it or explain what is it, I would be grateful

There are a ton of stuff online:

A Hoogsteen base pair is a variation of base-pairing in nucleic acids such as the A•T pair. In this manner, two nucleobases, one on each strand, can be held together by hydrogen bonds in the major groove.

I also did a free PubMed search with plenty of journal articles:
