Identifying physical causes of apparent enhanced cyclization of short DNA molecules with a coarse-grained model

DNA cyclization is a powerful technique to gain insight into the nature of DNA bending. While the wormlike chain model provides a good description of small to moderate bending fluctuations, it is expected to break down for large bending. Recent cyclization experiments on strongly bent shorter molecu...
