Effect of water-DNA interactions on elastic properties of DNA self-assembled monolayers

Abstract DNA-water interactions have revealed as very important actor in DNA mechanics, from the molecular to the macroscopic scale. Given the particularly useful properties of DNA molecules to engineer novel materials through self-assembly and by bridging organic and inorganic materials, the intere...
