Abstract

An overview is given of a method of taking information about the dependence on base-pair sequence of the structure and elastic response of DNA into account when calculating and determining the stability of equilibrium configurations of DNA segments subject to preassigned end conditions. To illustrate the theory, a few examples in which the theory is employed to calculate equilibrium configurations of closed minicircles are discussed.
