摘要：

The conformation and diffusion of a single DNA molecule confined between two parallel plates are examined using both single molecule experiments and Brownian dynamics simulations accounting for hydrodynamic interactions. The degree of chain stretching and the diffusivity are characterized as a function of the chain confinement and the channel geometry. Good agreement is found between the simulations, experiments, and scaling theory predictions.
