On the thermal properties of knotted block copolymer rings
Neda Abbasi Taklimi, Franco Ferrari, Marcin R. Piątek +1
We investigate the thermal and structural properties of knotted diblock copolymer rings using a coarse-grained lattice model in an implicit solvent. The system is studied by means…
Organisation and dynamics of individual DNA segments in topologically complex genomes
Saminathan Ramakrishnan, Auro Varat Patnaik, Guglielmo Grillo +2
Capturing the physical organisation and dynamics of genomic regions is one of the major open challenges in biology. The kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) is a topologically complex genome, ma…
A contact map method to capture the features of knot conformations
Neda Abbasi Taklimi, Franco Ferrari, Marcin Radosław Piątek +1
Inspired by recent advances in the chromosome capture techniques, a method is proposed to study the structural organization of systems of polymers rings with topological constraint…
Single-Molecule Morphology of Topologically Digested Olympic Networks
Saminathan Ramakrishnan, Zihao Chen, Yair Augusto Gutierrez Fosado +5
The kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) is the archetype of a two-dimensional Olympic network, composed of thousands of DNA minicircles and found in the mitochondrion of certain parasites. The…
Emergent circulation patterns from anonymized mobility data: Clustering Italy in the time of Covid
Jules Morand, Shoichi Yip, Yannis Velegrakis +3
Using anonymized mobility data from Facebook users and publicly available information on the Italian population, we model the circulation of people in Italy before and during the e…
Scaling properties of RNA as a randomly branching polymer
Domen Vaupotič, Angelo Rosa, Luca Tubiana +1
Formation of base pairs between the nucleotides of an RNA sequence gives rise to a complex and often highly branched RNA structure. While numerous studies have demonstrated the fun…
