چکیده

UNLABELLED TopoICE-R is a three-dimensional visualization and manipulation software for solving 2-string tangle equations and can be used to model the topology of DNA bound by proteins such as recombinases and topoisomerases. AVAILABILITY This software, manual and example files are available at www.knotplot.com/download for Linux, Windows and Mac.

3D visualization software to analyze topological outcomes of topoisomerase reactions

The action of various DNA topoisomerases frequently results in characteristic changes in DNA topology. Important information for understanding mechanistic details of action of these topoisomerases can be provided by investigating the knot types resulting from topoisomerase action on circular DNA forming a particular knot type. Depending on the topological bias of a given topoisomerase reaction,...

Procedural Modeling as an Analytical Tool for 3D Survey in Urban Design Assessment

This paper examines procedural modeling as a tool for 3D modeling creation. Procedural modeling historically has been used for 3D visualization of natural features, but with the release of the software CityEngine in 2008, the technology can easily be adopted also in problem domains dealing with urban environments. Then, we will examine and compare two types of modeling, traditional and proc...

I. Dna Topology: Dna Unknotting, Dna Unlinking and Chromosome Architecture

I am a mathematical biologist specialized in the applications of topology to the study of DNA. In my research I collaborate closely with experimental biologists to ensure that the problems approached and the solutions proposed remain biologically relevant. I use my background in pure mathematics to study DNA topology and DNA rearrangements using analytical (topology, knots, tangles and graphs) ...

Predicting DNA Sequence Motifs of Recombination Hotspots by Integrative Visualization and Analysis

Meiotic recombination hotspots play important roles in life sciences, but the regulatory mechanism remain unclear. To predict DNA sequence motifs that regulate recombination hotspots, we designed an open source software tool called “LDsplit” that detects SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) associated with meiotic recombination hotspots. The association is measured by the difference of histor...
