Statistical Mechanics of Multiplectoneme Phases in DNA
Midas Segers, Enrico Skoruppa, Helmut Schiessel +1
A stretched DNA molecule which is also under- or overwound, undergoes a buckling transition forming intertwined looped domains called plectonemes. Here we develop a simple theory t…
Systematic Coarse-Graining of Sequence-Dependent Structure and Elasticity of Double-Stranded DNA
Enrico Skoruppa, Helmut Schiessel
Coarse-grained models have played an important role in the study of the behavior of DNA at length scales beyond a few hundred base pairs. Traditionally, these models have relied on…
Comment on "Flexibility of short DNA helices with finite-length effect: From base pairs to tens of base pairs"
Midas Segers, Enrico Skoruppa, Jan A. Stevens +3
While analyzing the persistence length of DNA atomistic simulations Wu et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 142, 125103 (2015)] introduced an empirical formula to account for the observed length…
Length scale dependent elasticity in DNA from coarse-grained and all-atom models
Enrico Skoruppa, Aderik Voorspoels, Jocelyne Vreede +1
The mechanical properties of DNA are typically described by elastic theories with purely local couplings (on-site models). We discuss and analyze coarse-grained (oxDNA) and all-ato…
Computing the elastic mechanical properties of rod-like DNA nanostructures
Hemani Chhabra, Garima Mishra, Yijing Cao +4
To study the elastic properties of rod-like DNA nanostructures, we perform long simulations of these structure using the oxDNA coarse-grained model. By analysing the fluctuations i…
Twist-bend coupling, twist waves and the shape of DNA loops
S. K. Nomidis, M. Caraglio, M. Laleman +3
By combining analytical and numerical calculations, we investigate the minimal-energy shape of short DNA loops of approximately base pairs (bp). We show that in these loops t…
