The nonexchangeable proton resonances of the duplex 5'd (GATGGGCAG)-d (CTGCGCCATC) are assigned by nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) and correlated spectroscopy connectivities, and the NMR spectrum is compared with that of a regular 8-mer of similar sequence, 5'd (GATGGCAG)-d (CTGCCATC). Experimental proton-proton distances are obtained from NOESY spectra acquired with mixing times of 100, 150, and 200 ms. A refinedthree-dimensional structure for the bulge-containing duplex is calculated from regular B DNA starting coordinates by using the AMBER molecular mechanics program [Weiner, S. J., Kollman, P. A., Case, D. A., Singh, U. C., Ohio, C., Alagona, G., Profeta, S., & Weiner, P.(1984) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 106, 765-784], We compare structures obtained by building the helix in three and four base pair increments with structures obtained by direct minimization of the entire nine base sequence, with and without experimental distance constraints. The general features of all the calculated structures are very similar. The helix is of the B family, with the extra guanine stacked into the helix, and the helix axis is bent by 18-23, in agreement with gel mobility data for bulge-containing sequences [Rice, J.
