Figure 3From: Hierarchies in eukaryotic genome organization: Insights from polymer theory and simulationsChromatin Modeling. Coarse grained models of 10 nm chromatin fiber with different level of details. (a) The simple two angle model has two parameters, the angles α and β [25]. (b) The detailed two angle model includes energy terms for stretching and bending of the bead-chain with an additional energy term for the relative twist angle between adjacent beads to account for the twisting rigidity of DNA [37]. (c) Representation of the detailed mesoscale model of Arya et al [44, 45].Back to article page
