Influence of ionic conditions on knotting in a coarse-grained model for DNA

We investigate knotting probabilities of long double-stranded DNA strands in a coarse-grained Kratky-Porod model for DNA with Monte Carlo simulations. Various ionic conditions are implemented by adjusting the effective diameter of monomers. We find that the occurrence of knots in DNA can be reinforc...
