The histone octamer influences the wrapping direction of DNA on it: Brownian dynamics simulation of the nucleosome chirality
Wei Li, Shuo-Xing Dou, Peng-Ye Wang
In eukaryote nucleosome, DNA wraps around a histone octamer in a left-handed way. We study the process of chirality formation of nucleosome with Brownian dynamics simulation. We mo…

Brownian Dynamics Simulation of Nucleosome Formation and Disruption under Stretching
Wei Li, Shuo-Xing Dou, Peng-Ye Wang
Using a Brownian dynamics simulation, we numerically studied the interaction of DNA with histone and proposed an octamer-rotation model to describe the process of nucleosome format…
