Thermal denaturation of DNA studied with neutron scattering.
The melting transition of DNA, whereby the strands of the double-helix structure completely separate at a certain temperature, has been characterized using neutron scattering. A Bragg peak from B-form fiber DNA has been measured as a function of temperature, and its widths and integrated intensities have been interpreted using the Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois model with only one free parameter. The e...
متن کاملThermal denaturation of A-DNA
The DNA molecule can take various conformational forms. Investigations focus mainly on the so-called ‘B-form’, schematically drawn in the famous paper by Watson and Crick [1]. This is the usual form of DNA in a biological environment and is the only form that is stable in an aqueous environment. Other forms, however, can teach us much about DNA. They have the same nucleotide base pairs for ‘bui...
متن کاملDepolarized light scattering and terahertz absorption of protein solutions
similar procedure and the same type of interaction model were used for glucose solutions. Specifically, MD simulation was carried out using the DL_POLY2.0 package. The MD trajectories were generated using the SPC/E potential model for water and the optimized potential for liquid simulation (OPLS) all-atom force field for carbohydrates, developed by Jorgensen and co-workers, for both trehalose a...
متن کاملThermal denaturation of a helicoidal DNA model.
We study the static and dynamical properties of DNA in the vicinity of its melting transition, i.e., the separation of the two strands upon heating. The investigation is based on a simple mechanical model which includes the helicoidal geometry of the molecule and allows an exact numerical evaluation of its thermodynamical properties. Dynamical simulations of long-enough molecular segments allow...
متن کاملThermal Effects Study on Stimulated Brillouin Light Scattering in Photonic Crystal Fiber
we investigate the temperature-dependences of the Brillouin frequency shift in three different kind of single-mode fibers using a heterodyne method for sensing temperature. Positive dependences coefficients of 0.77, 0.56 and 1.45MHz/0C are demonstrated for 25 km long single-mode fiber, 10 km long non-zero dispersion shifted fiber and 100 m photonic crystal fiber, respectively. The results indic...
