环统计对RNA折叠热力学的影响

Impact of loop statistics on the thermodynamics of RNA folding

Thomas R. Einert, Paul Näger, Henri Orland, Roland R. Netz

摘要:

环在天然RNA结构中是丰富的,并且在接近解折叠转变时增殖。通过在配分函数的递归关系中包含长度为l的环的统计权重~ l^{-c},我们表明计算的热容敏感地依赖于指数c的存在和值,即使是短的t-RNA。对于homo-RNA,我们解析地计算了临界温度和临界指数,它们表现出对c的非普适依赖性。

英文摘要:

Loops are abundant in native RNA structures and proliferate close to the unfolding transition. By including a statistical weight ~ l^{-c} for loops of length l in the recursion relation for the partition function, we show that the calculated heat capacity depends sensitively on the presence and value of the exponent c, even of short t-RNA. For homo-RNA we analytically calculate the critical temperature and critical exponents which exhibit a non-universal dependence on c.
