DNA Breathing Dynamics in the Presence of a Terahertz Field.

B S Alexandrov1, V Gelev, A R Bishop, A Usheva, K Ø Rasmussen.   

Abstract

We consider the influence of a terahertz field on the breathing dynamics of double-stranded DNA. We model the spontaneous formation of spatially localized openings of a damped and driven DNA chain, and find that linear instabilities lead to dynamic dimerization, while true local strand separations require a threshold amplitude mechanism. Based on our results we argue that a specific terahertz radiation exposure may significantly affect the natural dynamics of DNA, and thereby influence intricate molecular processes involved in gene expression and DNA replication.
