Statistical mechanics of a polymer chain attached to the interface of a cone-shaped channel
Sanjay Kumar, Sanjiv Kumar, Debaprasad Giri +1
A polymer chain confined in nano-scale geometry has been used to investigate the underlying mechanism of Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC), where transport of cargoes is directional. It w…
Rupture of DNA Aptamer: new insights from simulations
Rakesh Kumar Mishra, Shesh Nath, Sanjay Kumar
Base-pockets (non-complementary base-pairs) in a double-stranded DNA play a crucial role in biological processes. Because of thermal fluctuations, it can lower the stability of DNA…
Single polymer gating of channels under a solvent gradient
S Nath, D P Foster, D Giri +1
We study the effect of a gradient of solvent quality on the coil-globule transition for a polymer in a narrow pore. A simple self-attracting self-avoiding walk model of a polymer i…
Statistical Mechanics of DNA Rupture: Theory and Simulations
S. Nath, T. Modi, R. K. Mishra +3
We study the effects of the shear force on the rupture mechanism on a double stranded DNA. Motivated by recent experiments, we perform the atomistic simulations with explicit solve…
