Base Stacking Interactions

Base Stacking Interactions is a molecular interaction characterized by the non-covalent, predominantly van der Waals and electrostatic forces between adjacent nucleobases in nucleic acids that stabilize their three-dimensional structure through orbital overlap and pi-pi interactions.
