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…
