Abstract
A model of self-avoiding walks with suitable constraint has been developed to study the effect of temperature on a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) in the constant force ensemble. Our exact calculations for small chains show that the extension (reaction coordinate) may increase or decrease with the temperature depending on the applied force. The simple model developed here, which incorporates semimicroscopic details of base direction, provides an explanation of the force-induced transitions in ssDNA as observed in experiments.
