description GU base pairs are important RNA structural motifs and often close loops. Accurate prediction of RNA structures relies upon understanding the interactions determining structure. The thermodynamics of some 2 × 2 nucleotide internal loops closed by GU pairs are not well understood. Here, several self-complementary oligonucleotide sequences expected to form duplexes with 2 × 2 nucleotide internal loops closed by GU pairs were investigated. Surprisingly, nuclear magnetic resonance revealed that many of the sequences exist in equilibrium between hairpin and duplex conformations. This equilibrium is not observed with loops closed by Watson–Crick pairs. To measure the thermodynamics of some 2 × 2 nucleotide internal loops closed by GU pairs, non-self-complementary sequences that preclude formation of hairpins were designed. The measured thermodynamics indicate that some internal loops closed by GU pairs are unusually unstable. This instability accounts for the observed equilibria between duplex and hairpin conformations. Moreover, it suggests that future three-dimensional structures of loops closed by GU pairs may reveal interactions that unexpectedly destabilize folding.
