Assessing the accuracy of the SIRAH force field to model DNA at coarse grain level

We present a comparison between atomistic and coarse grain models for DNA developed in our group, which we introduce here with the name SIRAH. Molecular dynamics of DNA fragments performed using implicit and explicit solvation approaches show good agreement in structural and dynamical features with...
