Molecular dynamics simulations of cyanine dimers attached to DNA Holliday junctions

Abstract

Molecular dynamics simulations reveal dye attachment and DNA Holliday junction isomer effects on dye dimer orientations and excitonic couplings. These simulations can guide synthesis and experiments of dye-DNA structures for excitonic applications.
