Please be patient for a day or two before expecting a reply. If you 
expect some Europeans to answer: Not all of us are awake at 2am....

Example:

s3d <- scatterplot3d(x, y, z, axis=FALSE,
          main="DNA curvature", type="l", grid=FALSE)
s3d$points3d(x1, y1, z1, col=2, type="l")
s3d$points3d(x2, y2, z2, col=3, type="l")

scatterplot3d is not good for such rotations. In order to view and 
rotate the data, I'd suggest to use the rgl package.

mented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
