Predicting 3D structure, flexibility and stability of RNA hairpins in monovalent and divalent ion solutions
Ya-Zhou Shi, Lei Jin, Feng-Hua Wang +2
A full understanding of RNA-mediated biology would require the knowledge of three-dimensional (3D) structures, structural flexibility and stability of RNAs. To predict RNA 3D struc…
Flexibility of nucleic acids: from DNA to RNA
Lei Bao, Xi Zhang, Lei Jin +1
The structural flexibility of nucleic acids plays a key role in many fundamental life processes, such as gene replication and expression, DNA-protein recognition, and gene regulati…
Multivalent ion-mediated nucleic acid helix-helix interactions: RNA versus DNA
Yuan-Yan Wu, Zhong-Liang Zhang, Jin-Si Zhang +2
Ion-mediated interaction is critical to the structure and stability of nucleic acids. Recent experiments suggest that the multivalent ion-induced aggregation of double-stranded (ds…
Flexibility of short DNA helices with finite-length effect: from base pairs to tens of base pairs
Yuan-Yan Wu, Lei Bao, Xi Zhang +1
Flexibility of short DNA helices is important for the biological functions such as nucleosome formation and DNA-protein recognition. Recent experiments suggest that short DNAs of t…
