Abstract Synopsis

  • Coarse-grained modeling of DNA nanostructures, like the oxDNA model, helps study their detailed structure and movement, especially when experimental data is hard to get.
  • The study focuses on jointed DNA structures, such as hinges and sliding joints, showing that their movement depends a lot on the specific details of the joints.
  • The results match well with experimental data, suggesting that this modeling approach can be useful for designing and predicting the properties of new DNA-based nanostructures before actually building them.
