Stiffer double-stranded DNA in two-dimensional confinement due to bending anisotropy
H. Salari, B. Eslami-Mossallam, H. F. Ranjbar +1
Using analytical approach and Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations, we study the elastic behaviour of the intrinsically twisted elastic ribbons with bending anisotropy, such as double-stra…
Extreme bendability of DNA double helix due to bending asymmetry
Hossein Salari, B. Eslami-Mossallam, M. S. Naderi +1
Experimental data of the DNA cyclization (J-factor) at short length scales, as a way to study the elastic behavior of tightly bent DNA, exceed the theoretical expectation based on…
Confinement dynamics of a semiflexible chain inside nano-spheres
Arman Fathizadeh, Maziar Heidari, Behrouz Eslami-Mossallam +1
We study the conformations of a semiflexible chain, confined in nano-scaled spherical cavities, under two distinct processes of confinement. Radial contraction and packaging are em…
An Asymmetric Elastic Rod Model for DNA
B. Eslami-Mossallam, M. R. Ejtehadi
In this paper we consider the anharmonic corrections to the anisotropic elastic rod model for DNA. Our model accounts for the difference between the bending energies of positive an…
Stretching An Anisotropic DNA
B. Eslami-Mossallam, M. R. Ejtehadi
We present a perturbation theory to find the response of an anisotropic DNA to the external tension. It is shown that the anisotropy has a nonzero but small contribution to the for…
