DNA Internal Motion Likely Accelerates Protein Target Search in a Packed Nucleoid

Transcription factors must diffuse through densely packed and coiled DNA to find their binding sites. Using a coarse-grained model of DNA and lac repressor (LacI) in the Escherichia coli nucleoid, simulations were performed to examine how LacI diffuses in such a space. Despite the canonical picture...
