Modeling of DNA binding to the condensin hinge domain using molecular dynamics simulations guided by atomic force microscopy

The condensin protein complex compacts chromatin during mitosis using its DNA-loop extrusion activity. Previous studies proposed scrunching and loop-capture models as molecular mechanisms for the loop extrusion process, both of which assume the binding of double-strand (ds) DNA to the hinge domain f...
