Structural Analysis of DNA molecule in a confined shell

Arghya Maity, Neha Mathur, Petra Imhof, Navin Singh

摘要:

最近的进展,在操作和操纵DNA提供了独特的实验可能性,在许多领域的DNA研究,特别是在基因治疗。研究人员已经部署了许多实验和理论技术来研究由于外部扰动而导致的DNA结构变化。理解DNA分子在受限状态下的结构和动力学变化对于理解和控制受限于腔室或纳米通道中的DNA的自组装以用于各种应用是至关重要的。在本论文中,我们进一步研究了限制对双链DNA热稳定性和结构性质的影响。本工作是我们以前研究工作的延伸。在我们的研究中,我们考虑了一个1 BNA链,被限制在圆柱形的几何形状。限制区的几何形状如何影响DNA分子的开口和其他结构参数是本文的目的。我们使用的统计模型(PBD模型)和分子动力学模拟为我们的目的。

英文摘要:

Recent advances in operating and manipulating DNA have provided unique experimental possibilities in many fields of DNA research, especially in gene therapy. Researchers have deployed many techniques, experimental and theoretical, to study the DNA structure changes due to external perturbation. It is crucial to understand the structural and dynamical changes in the DNA molecules in a confined state to understand and control the self-assembly of DNA confined in a chamber or nano-channel for various applications. In the current manuscript, we extend the work study the effect of confinement on the thermal stability and the structural properties of duplex DNA. The present work is an extension of our previous research works. For our study we have considered a 1 BNA chain that is confined in a cylindrical geometry. How the geometry of the confinement affects the opening and other structural parameters of DNA molecule is the objective of this manuscript. We have used a statistical model(PBD model) and Molecular dynamics simulations for our purpose.
