Thermodynamics of force-dependent folding and unfolding of small protein and nucleic acid structures [PDF]

open access: hybridIntegrative Biology, 2015
In this paper, we outline the theoretical framework for understanding the equilibrium force-dependent folding and unfolding transitions of protein domains and small nucleic acid structures, both having small rigid folded structures and highly flexible ...

A more unified picture for the thermodynamics of nucleic acid duplex melting: A characterization by calorimetric and volumetric techniques [PDF]

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1999
We use a combination of calorimetric and volumetric techniques to detect and to characterize the thermodynamic changes that accompany helix-to-coil transitions for five polymeric nucleic acid duplexes. Our calorimetric measurements reveal that melting of

What Controls the Hybridization Thermodynamics of Spherical Nucleic Acids? [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2015
The hybridization of free oligonucleotides to densely packed, oriented arrays of DNA modifying the surfaces of spherical nucleic acid (SNA)-gold nanoparticle conjugates occurs with negative cooperativity; i.e., each binding event destabilizes subsequent ...

Use of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) to Study the Thermodynamics of DNA-Based Interactions and Nucleic Acid-Based Therapeutics

open access: hybrid, 2016
In the 1950’s, the research findings of James Watson, Francis Crick, Rosalind Franklin, and Maurice Wilkins led to the discovery of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) double-helix conformation [1,2].

Thermodynamics of Nucleic Acid Structural Modifications for Biotechnology Applications

open access: hybrid, 2011
The repertoire of chemistry available to native nucleotides in DNA and RNA is limited to the purine and pyrimidine functional groups, along with the special role of the 2’-hydroxyl of RNA. The nucleobases have exocyclic amino groups and imines, neither of which is highly reactive or a good candidate for catalytic function.
