Topological transformations in proteins: effects of heating and proximity of an interface
Yani Zhao, Mateusz Chwastyk, Marek Cieplak
Using a structure-based coarse-grained model of proteins, we study the mechanism of unfolding of knotted proteins through heating. We find that the dominant mechanisms of unfolding…

A Topological Field Theory for the triple Milnor linking coefficient
Franco Ferrari, Marcin R. Piatek, Yani Zhao
The subject of this work is a three-dimensional topological field theory with a non-semisimple group of gauge symmetry with observables consisting in the holonomies of connections…
