Rational tangle surgery and Xer recombination on catenanes

Isabel K. Darcy, Kai Ishihara, Ram K. Medikonduri +1

The protein recombinase can change the knot type of circular DNA. The action of a recombinase converting one knot into another knot is normally mathematically modeled by band surge…

Tangle analysis of difference topology experiments: applications to a Mu protein-DNA complex

Isabel K. Darcy, John Luecke, Mariel Vazquez

We develop topological methods for analyzing difference topology experiments involving 3-string tangles. Difference topology is a novel technique used to unveil the structure of st…
