Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of DNA nanopore unzipping
Antonio Suma, Vincenzo Carnevale, Cristian Micheletti
Using theory and simulations, we carried out a first systematic characterization of DNA unzipping via nanopore translocation. Starting from partially unzipped states, we found thre…
Structure and elasticity of model disordered, polydisperse and defect-free polymer networks
Valerio Sorichetti, Andrea Ninarello, José Ruiz-Franco +5
The elasticity of disordered and polydisperse polymer networks is a fundamental problem of soft matter physics that is still open. Here, we self-assemble polymer networks via simul…
RNA folding landscapes from explicit solvent all-atom simulations
Gianmarco Lazzeri, Cristian Micheletti, Samuela Pasquali +1
Atomically detailed simulations of RNA folding have proven very challenging in view of the difficulties of developing realistic force fields and the intrinsic computational complex…
Polymer Physics by Quantum Computing
Cristian Micheletti, Philipp Hauke, Pietro Faccioli
Sampling equilibrium ensembles of dense polymer mixtures is a paradigmatically hard problem in computational physics, even in lattice-based models. Here, we develop a formalism bas…
essHi-C: Essential component analysis of Hi-C matrices
Stefano Franzini, Marco Di Stefano, Cristian Micheletti
Motivation: Hi-C matrices are cornerstones for qualitative and quantitative studies of genome folding, from its territorial organization to compartments and topological domains. Th…
Separation of Geometrical and Topological Entanglement in Confined Polymers Driven Out-Of-Equilibrium
Davide Michieletto, Enzo Orlandini, Matthew S Turner +1
We use Brownian dynamics simulations and advanced topological profiling methods to characterize the out-of-equilibrium evolution of self-entanglement in linear polymers confined in…
