Effects of molecular crowding and confinement on the spatial organization of a biopolymer
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-10-25)A chain molecule can be entropically collapsed in a crowded medium in a free or confined space. Here, we present a unified view of how molecular crowding collapses a flexible polymer in three distinct spaces: free, ... -
How are molecular crowding and the spatial organization of a biopolymer interrelated
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-10-21)In a crowded cellular interior, dissolved biomolecules or crowders exert excluded volume effects on other biomolecules, which in turn control various processes including protein aggregation and chromosome organization. As ...
