Analyzing the Changes in DNA Flexibility Due to Base Modifications

Unlike protein simulations for which one usually starts MD simulations using an experimentally determined native structure, the native structure of a given DNA sequence can rarely be found except for several well known DNA sequences. Thus, we build a dsDNA helix with a canonical B-DNA conformation u ...

Manipulating Yeast Genome Using Plasmid Vectors. In: Gene Expression Technology.
