72. The average χ values for individual quartets (calculated along the entire trajectory) were 201° for the 5′ terminal quartet, 242° for 3′ terminal quartet, and 228° for the inner quartets. The corresponding values in the crystal structure are around 238° for the 5′ terminal quartet and around 250° for the other quartets.
73. A very fast and concerted change of two angles occurred: the γ torsion changed from 55° to 190° and a from ca. 290° to 110°.

80. +" simulation, where once one of the outer cations tested a position outside the channel entrance. The whole event, however, took just 5 ps.
81. In fact, the first guanine residue in the crystal is anti (χ = 135°) while it should be syn. This has been swiftly repaired in both simulations by switching to the genuine syn arrangement (χ ca. 45°).
82. This means a range of closest interphosphate distances in structures averaged over three subsequent 0.5-ns intervals in both simulations, starting at 0.5 ns.
