Nucleic acid analysis --- :mod:`MDAnalysis.analysis.nuclinfo`
=============================================================
:Author: Elizabeth Denning
:Year: 2011
:Copyright: GNU Public License v3
The module provides functions to analyze nuclic acid structures, in
particular
- backbone dihedrals,
- chi dihedrals,
- AS or CP phase angles,
- Watson-Crick N1-N3 distances, C2-O2 distances, N6-O4 distances, O6-N4 distances.
For applications of this kind of analysis see [Denning2011]_ and [Denning2012]_.
All functions take a :class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` as an
argument together with further parameters that specify the base or bases in
question. Angles are in degrees. The functions use standard CHARMM names for
nucleic acids and atom names.

documented by charmm force field parameters.
Parameters
----------
universe : Universe
:class:`~MDAnalysis.core.universe.Universe` containing the
trajectory
bp1 : int
resid that base pairs with `bp2`
bp2 : int
resid below the base that flips
i : int
resid of the base that flips
segid1 : str (optional)
segid of resid base pairing with `bp2`
segid2 : str (optional)
segid, same as that of segid of flipping resid `i`
segid3 : str (optional)
segid of resid `i` that flips
Returns
-------
float
pseudo dihedral angle in degrees
