Base-pair resolution analysis of the effect of supercoiling on DNA flexibility and major groove recognition by triplex-forming oligonucleotides

Base-pair resolution analysis of the effect of supercoiling on DNA flexibility and major groove recognition by triplex-forming oligonucleotides

In cells, DNA is arranged into topologically-constrained (supercoiled) structures, but how this supercoiling affects the detailed double-helical structure of DNA remains unclear. Here authors use atomic force microscopy and atomistic molecular dynamics simulations, to resolve structures of negativel...
