The emergent dynamics of double-folded randomly branching ring polymers

Elham Ghobadpour, Max Kolb, Ivan Junier +1

The statistics of randomly branching double-folded ring polymers are relevant to the secondary structure of RNA, the large-scale branching of plectonemic DNA (and thus bacterial ch…

DNA supercoiling in bacteria: state of play and challenges from a viewpoint of physics based modeling

Ivan Junier, Elham Ghobadpour, Olivier Espeli +1

DNA supercoiling is central to many fundamental processes of living organisms. Its average level along the chromosome and over time reflects the dynamic equilibrium of opposite act…

Computational tools for the multiscale analysis of Hi-C data in bacterial chromosomes

Nelle Varoquaux, Virginia S. Lioy, Frédéric Boccard +1

Just as in eukaryotes, high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data have revealed nested organizations of bacterial chromosomes into overlapping interaction domains.…

Requirements for DNA-bridging proteins to act as topological barriers of the bacterial genome

Marc Joyeux, Ivan Junier

Bacterial genomes have been shown to be partitioned into several kilobases long chromosomal domains that are topologically independent from each other, meaning that change of DNA s…

Modeling supercoiled DNA interacting with an anchored cluster of proteins: towards a quantitative estimation of chromosomal DNA supercoiling

Jean-Charles Walter, Thibaut Lepage, Jérôme Dorignac +5

We investigate the measurement of DNA supercoiling density () along chromosomes using interaction frequencies between DNA and DNA-anchored clusters of proteins. Specifically, we…

A polymer model of bacterial supercoiled DNA including structural transitions of the double helix

Thibaut Lepage, Ivan Junier

DNA supercoiling, the under or overwinding of DNA, is a key physical mechanism both participating to compaction of bacterial genomes and making genomic sequences adopt various stru…
