MDNA is a software module that generates and analyzes complex DNA structures, supporting modifications and providing geometric analysis tools for detailed DNA modeling.

The paper identifies water-contact residues in GerAB that are critical for germinosome stability in Bacillus subtilis spores, based on MD simulations and functional assays.

The paper identifies three key residues in GerAB that affect water passage and germinosome stability through mutagenesis and molecular dynamics simulations.

This study shows that nuclear mechanostability arises from satellite DNA condensation into chromocenters, which help dissipate mechanical stress and protect genome integrity.

This study investigates the DNA-binding properties of bacterial histone HBb in Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus, revealing its ability to bend DNA in a sequence-independent manner, similar to archaeal and eukaryotic histones.
