Stochastic nonlinear models of DNA breathing at a defect

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a long polymer consisting of two chains of bases, in which the genetic information is stored. A base from one chain has a corresponding base on the other chain which together form a so-called base-pair. Molecular-dynamics simulations of a normal DNA duplex show that br...
