Bubble-bound state of triple-stranded DNA: Efimov Physics in DNA with repulsion

Jaya Maji, Flavio Seno, Antonio Trovato +1

The presence of a thermodynamic phase of a three-stranded DNA, namely, a mixed phase of bubbles of two bound strands and a single one, is established for large dimensions ($d\geq 5…

Melting behavior and different bound states in three-stranded DNA models

Jaya Maji, Somendra M. Bhattacharjee, Flavio Seno +1

Thermal denaturation of DNA is often studied with coarse-grained models in which native sequential base pairing is mimicked by the existence of attractive interactions only between…

Efimov effect of triple-stranded DNA: Real-space renormalization group and Zeros of the partition function

Jaya Maji, Somendra M. Bhattacharjee

We study the melting of three-stranded DNA by using the real-space renormalization group and exact recursion relations. The prediction of an unusual Efimov-analog three-chain bound…

Dynamic phase transition in the conversion of B-DNA to Z-DNA

Jaya Maji, Somendra M. Bhattacharjee

The long time dynamics of the conformational transition from B-DNA to Z-DNA is shown to undergo a dynamic phase transition. We obtained the dynamic phase diagram for the stability…

TYPE II DNA: when the interfacial energy becomes negative

Poulomi Sadhukhan, Jaya Maji, Somendra M. Bhattacharjee

An important step in transcription of a DNA base sequence to a protein is the initiation from the exact starting point, called promoter region. We propose a physical mechanism for…

When a DNA Triple helix melts: An analog of the Efimov state

Jaya Maji, Somendra M. Bhattacharjee, Flavio Seno +1

The base sequences of DNA contain the genetic code and to decode it a double helical DNA has to open its base pairs. Recent studies have shown that one can use a third strand to id…

Nonequilibrium tricriticality in one dimension

Jaya Maji, Somendra M. Bhattacharjee

We show the existence of a nonequilibrium tricritical point induced by a repulsive interaction in one dimensional asymmetric exclusion process. The tricritical point is associated…
