DNA elastic parameters from NDB database
« on: November 05, 2012, 11:24:33 am »
Dear users

I am looking for elastic parameters for the DNA bp-step deformations : equilibrium values and stiffness matrices.
These values were first published in [Olson, 1998]. In a more recent paper, [Balasubramanian, 2009], new values were obtained with a larger database. However, not all parameters are visible in the paper (not the cross-terms of the matrix).
Are these values included in 3dna ? I can't find them on the NDB website ?

Thanks for help

No, these new values are not included in 3DNA. You're advised to contact the authors of the 2009 Balasubramanian paper for further details.

For those who are interested in the original Olson et al. 1998 dataset, please check the post "Some details on PNAS98 DNA sequence-dependent deformability".
