Shot-Noise Limited Single-Molecule FRET Histograms: Comparison between Theory and Experiments†
Eyal Nir,Xavier Michalet,Kambiz M. Hamadani,Ted A. Laurence,Daniel Neuhauser,Yevgeniy Kovchegov,Shimon Weiss +6 more
TL;DR: A straightforward numerical algorithm is presented to compute the best fit shot-noise limited proximity ratio histogram (PRH) in single-molecule fluorescence resonant energy transfer diffusion experiments, and it is found that dsDNA data exhibit a wider PRH than expected from shot noise only.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pairing of isolated nucleic-acid bases in the absence of the DNA backbone
TL;DR: It is found that the gas-phase G–C base pair adopts a single configuration, which may be Watson–Crick, whereas G–G exists in two different configurations, and the spectroscopic characterization of the hydrogen bonding in isolated guanine–cytosine (G–C) and guanin–guanine (g–G) base pairs is characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photochemical selectivity in guanine-cytosine base-pair structures.
TL;DR: This work has studied guanine (G) and cytosine (C) base pairs in the absence of the RNA backbone and distinguished base-pair structures by IR-UV hole-burning spectroscopy as well as by high-level correlated ab initio calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Introducing improved structural properties and salt dependence into a coarse-grained model of DNA
Benedict E. K. Snodin,Ferdinando Randisi,Majid Mosayebi,Petr Šulc,John S. Schreck,Flavio Romano,Thomas E. Ouldridge,Roman Tsukanov,Eyal Nir,Ard A. Louis,Jonathan P. K. Doye +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extended version of oxDNA, called oxDNA2, was proposed to capture the thermodynamic, structural, and mechanical properties of single and double-stranded DNA.

Introducing Improved Structural Properties and Salt Dependence into a Coarse-Grained Model of DNA
Benedict E. K. Snodin,Ferdinando Randisi,Majid Mosayebi,Petr Šulc,John S. Schreck,Flavio Romano,Thomas E. Ouldridge,Roman Tsukanov,Eyal Nir,Ard A. Louis,Jonathan P. K. Doye +10 more
TL;DR: An extended version of oxDNA is introduced, a coarse-grained model of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) designed to capture the thermodynamic, structural, and mechanical properties of single- and double-stranded DNA, which improves the ability of the model to treat large structures, such as DNA origami, which are sensitive to these geometric features.
