In this perspective article, we focus on recent developments in the theory of charge effects in
biological DNA-related systems. The electrostatic effects on different levels of DNA …

Polyelectrolytes are macromolecules composed of charged monomers and exhibit unique
properties due to the interplay of their flexibility and electrostatic interactions. In solution …

The vibrational Stark effect (VSE) has proven to be an effective method for the study of
electric fields in proteins via the use of infrared probes. To explore the use of VSE in nucleic …

Single-stranded RNA aptamers have emerged as novel biosensor tools. However, the
immobilization procedure of the aptamer onto a surface generally induces a loss of affinity …

Different solvent temperatures with five kinds of counterions are used to investigate solvent
effects on the DNA microscopic structure. The dodecamer d (CGCGAATTCGCG) DNA …

A novel electrochemical biosensor was developed for the detection of epinephrine (EP) by
immobilizing double-strand DNA (dsDNA) bound with copper ions on a gold electrode (Cu …

We present the exact solutions of the linear Poisson− Boltzmann equation for several
problems relevant to electrostatics of DNA complexes with cationic lipids. We calculate the …

We propose an idea how the helical pattern of charges on the surface of DNA can affect
electrostatic interactions of nucleosome core particles in their columnar and crystalline …

In this work, it was found that DNA can undergo B‐Z transformational changes and
compaction in the presence of DNA intercalators such as ruthenium (II) polypyridyl …

We presume that the primary effect of Near Infrared (NIR) radiation on aqueous solutions of
biological molecules concerns modification of hydrogen bonded structures mainly the global …
