SimulateEntropy

SimulateEntropy[reaction]entropyObject

computes the change in entropy of the given reaction between two nucleic acid oligomers with traditional Nearest Neighbor thermodynamic analysis.

SimulateEntropy[reactantAplusB]entropyObject

finds the product of reaction from 'reactantA' + 'reactantB', then computes the change in entropy.

SimulateEntropy[reactantEquilibriumProduct]entropyObject

infers the type of reaction from the given 'reactant' 'product' state and computes the entropy for that reaction.

SimulateEntropy[reactionMechanism]entropyObject

computes the entropy from the reaction in the given mechanism.

SimulateEntropy[oligomer]entropyObject

considers the hybridization reaction between the given oligomer and its reverse complement.

SimulateEntropy[structure]entropyObject

considers the melting reaction whereby all of the bonds in the given structure are melted.

  • If given a nucleic acid sequence, strand, or sequence length, this function assumes a two-state binding between the provided sequence and a perfect reverse complement.
  • Given a structure, considers only the bonded regions of the structure.
  • Supported polymer types are DNA and RNA.
  • Untyped sequences or lengths default to DNA if there is ambiguity.
  • Enthalpy is independent of salt concentration, while entropy values for a given salt concentration. MonovalentSaltConcentration and DivalentSaltConcentration can be used to specify the concentration of monovalent salt (Na+, K+) and divalent salt (Mg2+) respectively. The entropy correction term is calculated as: 0.368*(Sequence Length - 1)*ln[(Na+) + 140*(Mg2+)] from Object[Report,Literature, "id:eGakld09nLXo"]: von Ahsen, et al.
