Packaging of DNA Integrated with Metal Nanoparticles in Solution by Nina Kasyanenko, Andrei Baryshev, Daria Artamonova, Petr Sokolov

“…The transformation of high-molecular DNA from a random swollen coil in a solution to a discrete nanosized particle with the ordered packaging of a rigid and highly charged double-stranded molecule is one of the amazing phenomena of polymer physics. DNA condensation is a well-known phenomenon in biological systems, yet its molecular mechanism is not clear. …”

Current theoretical models fail to predict the topological complexity of the human genome by Javier eArsuaga, Javier eArsuaga, Reyka G Jayasinghe, Robert G. Scharein, Mark R Segal, Robert eStolz, Mariel eVazquez, Mariel eVazquez

“…However, the absence of topological complexity contradicts results from polymer physics showing that the entanglement of long linear polymers in a confined volume increases rapidly with the length and with decreasing volume. textcolor{red}{{it In vivo} and {it in vitro} assays support this claim in some biological systems. …”

Stretching of <i>Bombyx mori</i> Silk Protein in Flow by Charley Schaefer, Peter R. Laity, Chris Holland, Tom C. B. McLeish

“…Through the lens of polymer physics, we argue that if all chains would stretch to a similar extent, a clear correlation length of the stickers in the direction of the flow emerges, which may indeed favour such a registration effect. …”
