Virus Replication as a Phenotypic Version of Polynucleotide Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, April 2013, Volume 75, Issue 4, pp 602-628, 2012
In this paper we revisit and adapt to viral evolution an approach based on the theory of branching process advanced by Demetrius, Schuster and Sigmund ("Polynucleotide evolution and branching processes", Bull. Math. Biol. 46 (1985) 239-262), in their study of polynucleotide evolution.

An Innovative Lip Boosting Technique Using Polynucleotides: “4-point Cannula Technique” [PDF]

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. The new concept in aesthetic medicine is heading toward regenerative medicine and the use of skin boosters in our practice, so the present case report aimed to evaluate the efficacy of injecting a polynucleotide into the lips for lip ...

Pulling hairpinned polynucleotide chains: Does base-pair stacking interaction matter? [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Chem. Phys. 114, 8694-8700 (2001). AIP Copyright, 2001
Force-induced structural transitions both in relatively random and in designed single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) chains are studied theoretically. At high salt conditions, ssDNA forms compacted hairpin patterns stabilized by base-pairing and base-pair stacking interactions, and a threshold external force is needed to pull the hairpinned structure into a ...

On the Lubensky-Nelson model of polymer translocation through nanopores [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys. J. 103, 889 (2012), 2012
We revisit the one-dimensional stochastic model of Lubensky and Nelson [Biophys. J 77, 1824 (1999)] for the electrically driven translocation of polynucleotides through alpha-hemolysin pores. We show that the model correctly describes two further important properties of the experimentally observed translocation time distributions, namely their spread ...

Complexation of DNA with Cationic Surfactant [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Transfection of an anionic polynucleotide through a negatively charged membrane is an important problem in genetic engineering. The direct association of cationic surfactant to DNA decreases the effective negative charge of the nucleic acid, allowing the DNA-surfactant complex to approach a negatively charged membrane.

Driven Polymer Translocation Through a Narrow Pore [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Motivated by experiments in which a polynucleotide is driven through a proteinaceous pore by an electric field, we study the diffusive motion of a polymer threaded through a narrow channel with which it may have strong interactions. We show that there is a range of polymer lengths in which the system is approximately translationally invariant, and we ...

Viral Evolution and Adaptation as a Multivariate Branching Process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the present work we analyze the problem of adaptation and evolution of RNA virus populations, by defining the basic stochastic model as a multivariate branching process in close relation with the branching process advanced by Demetrius, Schuster and Sigmund ("Polynucleotide evolution and branching processes", Bull. Math. Biol. 46 (1985) 239-262), in
