Hello Sir,
Thank you very much for a reply. I have selected following
atoms P, C5',C4',C3' atoms to estimate persistence length. I want to find
persistence length of whole dna, can you please elaborate on , how to
calculate persistence length of whole dna using helical axis of the dna?
Thanks & regards,
Mohan
