Extracting physical chemistry from mechanics: a new approach to investigate DNA interactions with drugs and proteins in single molecule experiments
M. S. Rocha
In this review we focus on the idea of establishing connections between the mechanical properties of DNAligand complexes and the physical chemistry of DNA-ligand interactions. This…

Transition on the entropic elasticity of DNA induced by intercalating molecules
M. S. Rocha, M. C. Ferreira, O. N. Mesquita
We use optical tweezers to perform stretching experiments on DNA molecules when interacting with the drugs daunomycin and ethidium bromide, which intercalate the DNA molecule. Thes…
