DNA cyclization and looping in the wormlike limit: normal modes and the validity of the harmonic approximation
Stefan M. Giovan, Andreas Hanke, Stephen D. Levene
For much of the last three decades Monte Carlo-simulation methods have been the standard approach for accurately calculating the cyclization probability, , or J factor, for DNA…

Free-energy calculations for semi-flexible macromolecules: Applications to DNA knotting and looping
Stefan M. Giovan, Robert G. Scharein, Andreas Hanke +1
We present a method to obtain numerically accurate values of configurational free energies of semiflexible macromolecular systems, based on the technique of thermodynamic integrati…
