Learning to Classify Threading in Melts of Rings
Filippo Conforto, Roman Staňo, Jan Smrek +1
Dense melts of nonconcatenated ring polymers exhibit anomalous dynamics and nonlinear rheology, in some cases linked to long-lived inter-ring threading entanglement. Detecting thes…
Binding Kinetics Oppositely Regulates type II Topoisomerase Relaxation and Decatenation Activities
Cleis Battaglia, Filippo Conforto, Yair Augusto Gutierrez Fosado +4
Type II Topoisomerases (topo II) are critical to simplify genome topology during transcription and replication. They identify topological problems and resolve them by passing a dou…
Yeast condensin acts as a transient intermolecular crosslinker in entangled DNA
Filippo Conforto, Antonio Valdes, Willem Vanderlinden +1
Structural-Maintenance-of-Chromosome (SMC) complexes such as condensins organise the folding of chromosomes. However, their role in modulating the entanglement of DNA and chromatin…
Fluidification of Entangled Polymers by Loop Extrusion
Filippo Conforto, Yair Augusto Gutierrez Fosado, Davide Michieletto
Loop extrusion is one of the main processes shaping chromosome organisation across the cell cycle, yet its role in regulating DNA entanglement and nucleoplasm viscoelasticity remai…
Geometric Learning of Knot Topology
Joseph Lahoud Sleiman, Filippo Conforto, Yair Augusto Gutierrez Fosado +1
Knots are deeply entangled with every branch of science. One of the biggest open challenges in knot theory is to formalise a knot invariant that can unambiguously and efficiently d…
