Statistical Mechanics of Multiplectoneme Phases in DNA
Midas Segers, Enrico Skoruppa, Helmut Schiessel +1
A stretched DNA molecule which is also under- or overwound, undergoes a buckling transition forming intertwined looped domains called plectonemes. Here we develop a simple theory t…

Insights into elastic properties of coarse-grained DNA models: q-stiffness of cgDNA vs. cgDNA+
Wout Laeremans, Midas Segers, Aderik Voorspoels +2
Coarse-grained models have emerged as valuable tools to simulate long DNA molecules while maintaining computational efficiency. These models aim at preserving interactions among co…
