Modeling the functions of condensin in chromosome shaping and segregation

Fig 4

(A) Segregation speed as a function of the strength Fcond and threshold distance Δ of inter-condensin attractions. Floop = 1.0. (B) Segregation speed as a function of the loop-holding force Floop under three pairs of different parameters of inter-condensin attractions. (C) Segregation speed and the decay speed of trans-attractions as a function of Δ for Fcond = Floop = 1.0. (D–G) Example of configurations observed at the end of the simulations at each point of D–G shown in panel A. Each chromosome in all simulations has 5000 monomers and 100 loops.
