 Hi, I was wondering what are the single point energies of the various
 nucleotides (ATCG) in gas phase (or solution or polynucleotides (prob.
 within indo))) for any level of theory. Modern papers would be
 appreciated...
 I am kinda curious about the information content of NTs and thought it
 would be fun to calculate these numbers.  See we would like to
 calculate:
 	H = - \Int_{-infty}^{+infty} \rho(x) ln_e \rho(x),
 where \rho is the density matrix.
 I need the s.p.'s to compare my calculations to others....
 Thanks Iraj.
