Local DNA structures are alternative DNA conformations which can be formed aside from typical B-DNA conformation. These structures often play pivotal roles in regulation of basic biological processes, such as DNA replication, transcription or binding of specific ligands. This biological significance makes alternative DNA secondary structures a potential drug target. In this diploma thesis, local structures in genomes of viruses from Flaviviridae and Retroviridae families are analysed using bioinformatics tools. Furthermore, these structures are visualised using atomic force microscopy.
