nuScore – DNA Deformation Energy and Nucleosome-positioning Score Calculator

nuScore

:: DESCRIPTION

nuScore allows estimation of the affinity of the histone core to DNA and prediction of nucleosome arrangement on a given sequence. The algorithm is based on assessment of the energy cost of imposing the deformations required to wrap DNA around the histone surface
