TL;DR: It is found that the high optical absorption of a diketopyrrolopyrrole-thienothiophene copolymer can be explained by the high persistence length of the polymer, and high absorption in other polymers with high theoretical persistence length is demonstrated.

Decoupling of size and shape fluctuations in heteropolymeric sequences reconciles discrepancies in SAXS vs. FRET measurements

TL;DR: This analysis suggests that chemical heterogeneity in heteropolymeric systems leads to a decoupling between RE and RG that is amplified in the absence of denaturants, and joint assessments of RG and RE combined with measurements of polymer shapes should provide a consistent and complete picture of the underlying ensembles.

TL;DR: A third round of RNA-Puzzles is reported, with a notable need for an algorithm of improvement in the prediction of non-Watson-Crick interactions and the observed high atomic clash scores.

Cryptic sequence features within the disordered protein p27Kip1 regulate cell cycle signaling.
TL;DR: A positive correlation between T187 phosphorylation efficiency and the weighted net charge per residue of an auxiliary motif is found and this increases the likelihood of long-range intra-IDR interactions that involve both the primary and auxiliary motifs and inhibit their contributions to function.

Topological aspects of the physics of polymers: The theory and its biophysical applications
TL;DR: In this article, the mathematical basis of the theory of knots and linkages is briefly presented, together with a review of the physical properties of the double helix of circular DNA.
