+These files are used by Dna.py to create PAM3 DNA structures in the
+CAD program:
+
+- StartBasePair.mmp
+- MiddleBasePair.mmp
+- EndBasePair.mmp
+- SingleBasePair.mmp
+
+Each file contains two "Ss3" (Sugar) pseudo atoms named "a" and "b" (via the
+new Atom "dnaBaseName" info records) which get assigned their permanent
+base letters when the DNA structure is generated (see Dna.make()).
+The "a" atom belongs to "Strand1" and atom "b" (the complement of "a") belongs
+to "Strand2".
