We study the effect of electrostatic interactions on the distribution function of the end-to-end distance of a single polyelectrolyte chain in a rodlike configuration. We investigate the validity of the concept of electrostatic persistence length for uniformly charged wormlike chains for both screened and unscreened Coulomb interactions. We find that the distribution function of a polyelectrolyte often differs significantly from the distribution function of a wormlike chain.
