Topological spectra and entropy of chromatin loop networks
Andrea Bonato, Dom Corbett, Sergey Kitaev +3
The 3D folding of a mammalian gene can be studied by a polymer model, where the chromatin fibre is represented by a semiflexible polymer which interacts with multivalent proteins,…
Combinatorics and topological weights of chromatin loop networks
Andrea Bonato, Dom Corbett, Sergey Kitaev +3
Polymer physics models suggest that chromatin spontaneously folds into loop networks with transcription units (TUs), such as enhancers and promoters, as anchors. Here we use combin…
Spontaneous Unidirectional Loop Extrusion Emerges from Symmetry Breaking of SMC Extension
Andrea Bonato, Jae-Won Jang, Kyoung-Wook Moon +2
DNA loop extrusion is arguably one of the most important players in genome organization. The precise mechanism by which loop extruding factors (LEFs) work is still unresolved and m…
