Emergence of effective temperatures in an out-of-equilibrium model of biopolymer folding
Marco Ancona, Alessandro Bentivoglio, Michele Caraglio +2
We investigate the possibility of extending the notion of temperature in a stochastic model for the RNA/protein folding driven out of equilibrium. We simulate the dynamics of a sma…

Transcriptional bursts in a non-equilibrium model for gene regulation by supercoiling
Marco Ancona, Alessandro Bentivoglio, Chris A. Brackley +2
We analyse transcriptional bursting within a stochastic non-equilibrium model which accounts for the coupling between the dynamics of DNA supercoiling and gene transcription. We fi…

A stochastic model of supercoiling-dependent transcription
C. A. Brackley, J. Johnson, A. Bentivoglio +4
We propose a stochastic model for gene transcription coupled to DNA supercoiling, where we incorporate the experimental observation that polymerases create supercoiling as they unw…
