چکیده | ||
The interaction of biomolecules with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has generated a great deal of interest in the past few years. The interaction between B-form single-strand DNA (ssDNA) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is a subject of intense current interest; however there are a relatively small number of papers in the literature dealing with interaction of DNA and SWCNTs. In this work we investigate interaction of ssDNA with open-end of SWCNT; using AMBER, MM+ and OPLS force fields in molecular mechanic (MM) method. We study effects of increase the molecular number of solvent on interaction of ssDNA with SWCNTs, using these force fields too. The interaction of ssDNA with open-end of SWCNT in water and ethanol have been calculated using density functional theory (DFT) at the theoretical level of B3LYP/6-31G (d, p) and have been made a comparison between dipole moment; energy and atomic charges in vacuum; water and ethanol. Our results show that interaction of ssDNA with open-end of SWCNT could be optimum in polar solvent. | ||
