English: Title: A new approach to the mechanics of DNA
Abstract: Traditionally, DNA sequences are considered as cylindrical straight isotropic beams , but this lead to unrealistic ratios between torsional and bending stiffnesses . The deformation characteristics of long biological macromolecules, such as DNA or collagen, can be lucidly described by the terms “bending”, “stretching”, “torsion” and “shearing”. These terms appear in a subset of continuum mechanics, called beam theory, while the standard numerical modelling procedure for macromolecules, which is molecular dynamics, does not allow for a direct introduction of these deformation characteristics . This deficit has motivated the theoretical development of a transition or upscaling procedure from molecular dynamics to beam theory . It consists of two steps: (i) translation of potential energies into systems of equilibrated forces and moments; (ii) upscaling, through the principle of virtual power, the forces and moments arising from (i), to the scale where the macromolecule itself is considered as a beam structure. As a first application, the above-described novel strategy is realised for a sequence of DNA base pairs, elucidating the source of the somehow paradox stretching-torsion coupling these molecules are known for.
