Lac repressor mediated DNA looping: Monte Carlo simulation of constrained DNA molecules complemented with current experimental results.
Tethered particle motion (TPM) experiments can be used to detect time-resolved loop formation in a single DNA molecule by measuring changes in the length of a DNA tether. Interpretation of such experiments is greatly aided by computer simulations of DNA looping which allow one to analyze the structu...
