hi Anne!
why don't try JUMNA? ->
JUMNA (Junction Minimisation of Nucleic Acids). R. Lavery, K. Zakrzewska
and H. Sklenar Computer Physics Communications 91 (1995) 135-158.
there is no graphical interface but u can easily generate pdb files wich
can be visualized e.g. with rasmol, ...
best regards
felipe
