Critical information on several biological processes such as DNA-protein interactions and DNA transcription can be derived from analysis of DNA curvature. Under thermal perturbation, the curvature is composed of static and dynamic contributions, thus, can be described as the sum of intrinsic curvature and a fluctuation contribution. Without considering thermal agitations, the DNA curvature is reducible to the intrinsic component, which is a function of the DNA nucleotide sequence only.

Abstract
Critical information on several biological processes such as DNA-protein interactions and DNA transcription can be derived from analysis of DNA curvature. Under thermal perturbation, the curvature is composed of static and dynamic contributions, thus, can be described as the sum of intrinsic curvature and a fluctuation contribution. Without considering thermal agitations, the DNA curvature is reducible to the intrinsic component, which is a function of the DNA nucleotide sequence only.File in questo prodotto:
