Toroidal nuclei of columnar lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals coexisting with isotropic phase
Runa Koizumi, Dmitry Golovaty, Ali Alqarni +4
Nuclei of ordered materials emerging from the isotropic state usually show a shape topologically equivalent to a sphere; the well-known examples are crystals and nematic liquid cry…
Ion-dependent DNA Configuration in Bacteriophage Capsids
Pei Liu, Javier Arsuaga, M. Carme Calderer +3
Bacteriophages densely pack their long dsDNA genome inside a protein capsid. The conformation of the viral genome inside the capsid is consistent with a hexagonal liquid crystallin…
Fine Structure of Viral dsDNA Encapsidation
Shawn Walker, Javier Arsuaga, M. Carme Calderer +2
In vivo configurations of dsDNA of bacteriophage viruses in a capsid are known to form hexagonal chromonic liquid crystal phases. This article studies the liquid crystal ordering o…
