Some of these structures were proposed during the 1950s before the structure of the double helix was solved, most famously by Linus Pauling.

These were also rejected due to accumulating experimental evidence from X-ray crystallography, solution NMR, and atomic force microscopy (of both DNA alone, and bound to DNA-binding proteins). Although localised or transient non-duplex helical structures exist, non-helical models are not currently accepted by the mainstream scientific community. Finally, there exists a persistent set of contemporary fringe theories proposing a range of unsupported models. (en)
