DNA nanotweezers studied with a coarse-grained model of DNA
We introduce a coarse-grained rigid nucleotide model of DNA that reproduces the basic thermodynamics of short strands: duplex hybridization, single-stranded stacking and hairpin formation, and also captures the essential structural properties of DNA: the helical pitch, persistence length and torsion...
