Influence of a fluorobenzene nucleobase analogue on the conformational flexibility of RNA studied by molecular dynamics simulations [PDF]
Chemically modified bases are frequently used to stabilize nucleic acids, to study the driving forces for nucleic acid structure formation and to tune DNA and RNA hybridization conditions.

Dynamics of a bubble formed in double stranded DNA
We study the fluctuational dynamics of a tagged base-pair in double stranded DNA. We calculate the drift force which acts on the tagged base-pair using a potential model that describes interactions at base pairs level and use it to construct a Fokker ...

Sequence-specific double-strand cleavage of DNA by penta-N-methylpyrrolecarboxamide-EDTA·Fe(II) [PDF]
In the presence of O2 and 5 mM dithiothreitol, penta-N-methylpyrrolecarboxamide-EDTA·Fe(II) [P5E·Fe(II)] at 0.5 µ M cleaves pBR322 plasmid DNA (50 µ M in base pairs) on opposite strands to afford discrete DNA fragments as analyzed by agarose gel ...

Self-organised criticality in base-pair breathing in DNA with a defect
We analyse base-pair breathing in a DNA sequence of 12 base-pairs with a defective base at its centre. We use both all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and a system of stochastic differential equations (SDE).

Lattice Attacks on Pairing-Based Signatures [PDF]
Practical implementations of cryptosystems often suffer from critical information leakage through side-channels (such as their power consumption or their electromagnetic emanations). For public-key cryptography on embedded systems, the core operation is usually group exponentiation – or scalar multiplication on elliptic curves – which is a sequence of ...

A Mathematical Model for RNA 3D Structures
The computational prediction of RNA three-dimensional (3D) structures remains a significant challenge, largely due to the limited understanding of RNA folding pathways.

Aviram-Ratner rectifying mechanism for DNA base pair sequencing through graphene nanogaps
We demonstrate that biological molecules such as Watson-Crick DNA base pairs can behave as biological Aviram-Ratner electrical rectifiers because of the spatial separation and weak hydrogen bonding between the nucleobases.

Modeling DNA Structure, Elasticity and Deformations at the Base-pair Level
We present a generic model for DNA at the base-pair level. We use a variant of the Gay-Berne potential to represent the stacking energy between neighboring base-pairs.

Thermodynamics of base pairing
The study of the thermodynamics of base pairing is a rapidly expanding field due to its importance for taking advantage of opportunities presented by the growing database of nucleic acid sequences. Both natural and unnatural nucleic acids are being studied.
