We develop a continue time Monte Carlo algorithm to simulate single RNAs unfolded by a time-dependent external force on the secondary structure level. Two recent unfolding RNA experiments carried out by Bustamante group are mainly investigated. We find that, in contrast to popular two-state assumption about the RNAs free energy landscape along the molecular extension, the molecules used in the experiments...
Using polymer elastic theory and known RNA free energies, we construct a Monte Carlo algorithm to simulate the single RNA folding and unfolding by mechanical force on the secondary structure level. For the constant force ensemble, we simulate the force-extension curves of the P5ab, P5abcΔA, and P5abc molecules in equilibrium. For the constant extension ensemble, we focus on the mechanical behaviors...
