DNA Crookedness Regulates DNA Mechanical Properties at Short Length Scales. Phys Rev Lett. 2019 Feb 1;122(4):048102. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.048102.
Two DNA sequences showing low (left, poly-dA:dT) and high (right, poly-dG:dC) degree of crookedness. The sequences with a higher degree of crookedness have a smaller extension and a greater elasticity
