Abstract
AbstractSingle‐stranded DNA (ssDNA) plays a pivotal role in both nanotechnology and various biological processes. Many processes and applications can be better understood with enhanced structural characterization of ssDNA; however, the dynamic nature of the molecule makes accurate characterization with atomistic resolution extremely difficult. This study uses a method that integrates experimental small‐angle X‐ray scatter (SAXS) data and molecular modeling data using a genetic algorithm (GA) to predict an all‐atom conformational ensemble of ssDNA. The results of this study also validate the performance of various AMBER force fields and implicit solvent models for ssDNA. Overall, the results are able to determine the most accurate atomistic representation of poly‐Thymine (polyT) in solution to date that closely matches the experimental SAXS observations enabling a better understanding of the behavior of ssDNA in solution.
