Bubble Statistics and Dynamics in Double-Stranded DNA

B. S. Alexandrov, L. T. Wille, K. O. Rasmussen +2

The dynamical properties of double-stranded DNA are studied in the framework of the Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois model using Langevin dynamics. Our simulations are analyzed in terms of t…

Healing Length and Bubble Formation in DNA

Z. Rapti, A. Smerzi, K. O. Rasmussen +3

We have recently suggested that the probability for the formation of thermally activated DNA bubbles is, to a very good approximation, proportional to the number of soft AT pairs o…

Probing the mechanical unzipping of DNA

N. K. Voulgarakis, A. Redondo, A. R. Bishop +1

A study of the micromechanical unzipping of DNA in the framework of the Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois model is presented. We introduce a Monte Carlo technique that allows accurate determi…

Lengthscales and Cooperativity in DNA Bubble Formation

Z. Rapti, A. Smerzi, K. Ø. Rasmussen +1

It appears that thermally activated DNA bubbles of different sizes play central roles in important genetic processes. Here we show that the probability for the formation of such bu…

Theory of Bubble Nucleation and Cooperativity in DNA Melting

S. Ares, N. K. Voulgarakis, K. O. Rasmussen +1

The onset of intermediate states (denaturation bubbles) and their role during the melting transition of DNA are studied using the Peyrard-Bishop-Daxuois model by Monte Carlo simula…

Ferroelastic Dynamics and Strain Compatibility

T. Lookman, S. R. Shenoy, K. O. Rasmussen +2

We derive underdamped evolution equations for the order-parameter (OP) strains of a ferroelastic material undergoing a structural transition, using Lagrangian variations with Rayle…
