A Survey of N-string Tangle Analyses of Dna-enzyme Synaptic Complexes

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: In last 30 years, mathematical tangle theory is applied to molecular biology, especially to DNA topology. The recent issues and research results of this topic are reviewed in this paper. We introduce a tangle which models an enzyme-DNA complex. The studies of 2-string tangle equations related to Topoisomerase II action and site-specific recombination is discussed. And 3-string tangle analysis of Mu-DNA complex, n-string tangle analysis ( $n{\geq}4$ ) of DNA-enzyme synaptic complexes are also discussed.
