Equilibrium States of Nano scaled DNA-loops in Different Elastic Models, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Ejtehadi, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
DNA cyclization mechanism, has an important role in many biological processes such as gene regulation, DNA replication and recombination. In addition there are DNA-loops in Bacteria an around the Histones in Chromosomes in scale of 5-100 nm. We need to a appropriate model to study about bending and loop formationin in this important molecule which is able to describe elasticity properties of DNA.One of the most successful models, to describe the physical behaviour of a long DNA molecule, is the elastic rod model. In this model, DNA is considered as a ixable rod that its bending energy is isotropic. Asymmetric elastic rod model is another model to describe elasticity properties of DNA....
