The sub-diffusive behavior of chromatin in changing environment

Yevgeni Sh. Mamasakhlisov, Vladimir V. Papoyan

The rotor-router walk model is proposed to describe the sub-diffusive behavior of double-strand breaks in chromatin caused by external factors such as heavy ions, -irradiation,…

Statistical mechanics of DNA-nanotube adsorption

Shushanik Tonoyan, Davit Khechoyan, Yevgeni Mamasakhlisov +1

Attraction between the polycyclic aromatic surface elements of carbon nanotubes (CNT) and the aromatic nucleotides of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) leads to reversible adsorption (ph…

Cold denaturation of RNA secondary structures with loop entropy and quenched disorder

Flavio Iannelli, Yevgeni Mamasakhlisov, Roland R. Netz

We study the folding of RNA secondary structures with quenched sequence randomness by means of the constrained annealing method. A thermodynamic phase transition is induced by incl…

Solvent Effects in the Helix-Coil Transition Model can explain the Unusual Biophysics of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins

Artem Badasyan, Yevgeni Sh. Mamasakhlisov, Rudolf Podgornik +1

We analyze a model statistical description of the polypeptide chain helix-coil transition, where we take into account the specificity of its primary sequence, as quantified by the…

A unified description of solvent effects in the helix-coil transition

Artem Badasyan, Shushanik A. Tonoyan, Achille Giacometti +4

We analyze the problem of the helix-coil transition in explicit solvents analytically by using spin-based models incorporating two different mechanisms of solvent action: explicit…

One dimensional Potts model with many-body interactions and the Generalized Model of Polypeptide Chain for the helix-coil transition

Artem Badasyan, Achille Giacometti, Rudolf Podgornik +2

Helix-coil transition in polypeptides is an example of a spin model with a preferred spin direction, in the sense that a theoretical formulation of this problem requires to assign…
