Entropy and heat capacity of DNA melting from temperature dependence of single molecule stretching.

When a single molecule of double-stranded DNA is stretched beyond its B-form contour length, the measured force shows a highly cooperative overstretching transition. We have measured the force at which this transition occurs as a function of temperature. To do this, single molecules of DNA were capt...
