Confinement induces helical organization of chromosome-like polymers

Helical organization is commonly observed for a variety of biopolymers. Here we study the helical organization of two types of biopolymers, i.e., DNA-like semiflexible and bottle-brush polymers, in a cell-like confined space. A bottle-brush polymer consists of a backbone and side chains emanating fr...
