A modified Potts model for the interaction of surface-attached polymer complexes
Marcel Hellmann, Youjin Deng, Matthias Weiss +1
We present a simple yet generic model for the behavior of a system of many surface-attached flexible polymers with rigid side chains. Beyond its potential application in describing…
Superdiffusion in a Model for Diffusion in a Molecularly Crowded Environment
Dietrich Stauffer, Christian Schulze, Dieter W. Heermann
We present a model for diffusion in a molecularly crowded environment. The model consists of random barriers in percolation network. Random walks in the presence of slowly moving b…
Chromatin Folding in Relation to Human Genome Function
Julio Mateos-Langerak, Osdilly Giromus, Wim de Leeuw +6
Three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure is closely related to genome function, in particular transcription. However, the folding path of the chromatin fiber in the interphase nu…
Knots in Macromolecules in Constraint Space
Michael Brill, Philipp M. Diesinger, Dieter W. Heermann
We find a power law for the number of knot-monomers with an exponent in agreement with previous simulations. For the average size of a knot we also obtain a power la…
