Unzipping DNA - towards the first step of replication | | Somendra M. Bhattacharjee
; | | Date: |
16 Dec 1999 | | Journal: | Published version: J.Phys A 33,L423(2000); 33,9003(E)(2000) | | Subject: | Statistical Mechanics | cond-mat.stat-mech q-bio | | Abstract: | The opening of the Y-fork - the first step of DNA replication - is shown to be a critical phenomenon under an external force at one of its ends. From the results of an equivalent delocalization in a non-hermitian quantum-mechanics problem we show the different scaling behavior of unzipping and melting. The resultant long-range critical features within the unzipped part of Y might play a role in the highly correlated biochemical functions during replication. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/9912297 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
