Unzipping dsDNA with a force: scaling theory | Jeff Z.Y. Chen
; | Date: |
23 Nov 2001 | Journal: | See PRE 66, 031912 (2002) for a newer version. | Subject: | Statistical Mechanics; Soft Condensed Matter | cond-mat.stat-mech cond-mat.soft q-bio | Abstract: | A double stranded DNA molecule under the stress of a pulling force acting on the strand terminals exhibits a partially denatured structure or can be completely unzipped depending the magnitude of the pulling force. A scaling argument for relationships amongst basic length scales is presented that takes into account the heterogeneity of the sequence. The result agrees with our numerical simulation data, which provides a critical test of the power laws in the unzipping transition region. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0111462 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
