Abstract
The onset of the “eye phase” (a phase consisting of configurations of eye-type conformations or bubbles in the double-stranded DNA) and its role during the DNA unzipping is studied when a force is applied to the interior of the chain. The directionality of the hydrogen bond introduced here shows oscillations in force-extension curve similar to a “sawtooth” kind of oscillations seen in the protein unfolding experiments. The effects of intermediates (hairpins) and stacking energies on the melting profile have also been discussed.
