A quantitative model for a nanoscale switch accurately predicts thermal actuation behavior
Kyle Crocker, Joshua Johnson, Wolfgang Pfeifer +2
Manipulation of temperature can be used to actuate DNA origami nano-hinges containing gold nanoparticles. We develop a physical model of this system that uses partition function an…

Potential evolutionary advantage of a dissociative search mechanism in DNA mismatch repair
Kyle Crocker, James London, Andrés Medina +2
Protein complexes involved in DNA mismatch repair appear to diffuse along dsDNA in order to locate a hemimethylated incision site via a dissociative mechanism. Here, we study the p…
