Simulation of electrophoretic stretching of DNA in a microcontraction using an obstacle array for conformational preconditioning

Recently our group has reported experiments using an obstacle array to precondition the conformations of DNA molecules to facilitate their stretch in a microcontraction. Based upon previous successes simulating electrophoretic stretching in microcontractions without obstacles, we use our simulation...
