Effect of twisting on the behavior of a double-stranded polymer chain: A Monte Carlo simulation

DNA and some proteins have a multistranded chain structure and exhibit characteristic tertiary structures due to twisting or anisotropic rigidity. We studied the effect of chain twisting on the behavior of a circular double-stranded polymer chain using a Monte Carlo simulation with bond fluctuation...
