Abstract

Ion mediated interactions between nucleic acid helices are essential for their efficient packaging within tight spaces such as viral capsids, and nucleosomes. Understanding the fundamental rules governing these interactions is key for controlling biomolecular assembly and design engineering tools for supramolecular architectures. Aside from the strong cation dependency, one recent surprising finding is the sequence specificity of DNA-DNA interactions demonstrated in both experimental and computational studies.
