We have studied, by conformational analysis, the sequence dependence of DNA conformational transition between B-and A-forms. We have considered intramolecular interactions between base pairs, without backbone, to examine their role in the conformational transition between Band A-forms, and found tha
## Abstract A statisticalβmechanical model for superhelical DNA is presented. The partition function for a DNA superhelix is written by using a combinatorial approach in order to allow for the known relation between the number of superhelical twists and the states of the base pairs in the double he
