Title:Theoretical Models for Tension-Dependent DNA Looping Time
View PDF HTML (experimental)Abstract:The influence of tension on DNA looping has been studied both experimentally and theoretically in the past. However, different theoretical models have yielded different predictions, leaving uncertainty about their validity. We briefly review the predictions of those models and propose a novel model that demonstrates exceptional agreement with simulations for long semiflexible chains. Additionally, we elucidate the relationship between our result and that of the previously proposed two-state model, highlighting the distinct interpretative approach that underpins our framework. Our findings offer predictive insights that pave the way for future experimental validation.
