Thermomechanics of DNA: theory of thermal stability under load.

Cristiano Nisoli1, A R Bishop.   

Abstract

A theory for thermomechanical behavior of homogeneous DNA at thermal equilibrium predicts critical temperatures for denaturation under torque and stretch, phase diagrams for stable B-DNA, supercoiling, optimally stable torque, and the overstretching transition as force-induced DNA melting. Agreement with available single molecule manipulation experiments is excellent.
