โœฆ Synopsis


Using a Brownian dynamics simulation, we numerically studied the interaction of DNA with histone and proposed an octamerrotation model to describe the process of nucleosome formation. Nucleosome disruption under stretching was also simulated. The theoretical curves of extension versus time as well as of force versus extension are consistent with previous experimental results.

## Abstract **Summary:** The behavior of an anisotropic polymer brush under a lateral shear flow is considered in the framework of a hybrid method combining a selfโ€consistent field approach and Brownian dynamics simulation. It is shown that such a flow can induce the compression of an anisotropic b
