Θεοδωρακόπουλος, ΝίκοςThe paper uses mesoscopic, nonlinear lattice dynamics based (Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois, PBD) modeling to describe thermal properties of DNA below and near the denaturation temperature. Computationally efficient notation is introduced for the relevant statistical mechanics. Computed melting profiles of long and short heterogeneous sequences are presented, using a recently introduced reparametrization of the PBD model, and critically discussed. The statistics of extended open bubbles and bound clusters is formulated and results are presented for selected examples.Singapore429-44710.1142/S14029251110016111402-9251https://hdl.handle.net/10442/12812engWorld Scientific Publ Company Pte Limited© WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBL CO PTE LTD© WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBL CO PTE LTDJournal of Nonlinear Mathematical PhysicsPeyrard-Bishop-Dauxois (PBD) modelDNA meltingPhysics, Mathematicaldenaturation bubblesBUBBLES, CLUSTERS AND DENATURATION IN GENOMIC DNA: MODELING, PARAMETRIZATION, EFFICIENT COMPUTATIONΆρθρο σε επιστημονικό περιοδικό2011-08Δημοσίευση σε περιοδικόPublication in journalΦυσικήPhysical sciencesFrascati 42Επιστημονικό άρθροScientific articleΕθνικό Ίδρυμα Ερευνών (ΕΙΕ)Greek Aggregator OpenArchives.gr | National Documentation Centre (EKT)
