Abstract
A tangle consists of strings properly embedded in a 3-dimensional ball. Tangles have been used to model protein-bound DNA. The protein is represented by the 3D ball and the protein-bound DNA is represented by the strings embedded in the 3D ball. We review tangle analysis of protein-DNA complexes involving three or four segments of DNA.
