Abstract

The influence of the torsion moment on the DNA kink motion is studied by the methods of mathematical modeling. Time dependence of the kink coordinate, velocity, size, and energy on the different values of the parameters of the external torsion moment have been found. It has been shown that by changing the parameters, by switching on and off of the external action, one could regulate the velocity and the direction of the kink movement. Estimation of the torque value necessary for the kink (open state) movement with the velocity comparable to the transcription velocity, has been made.
