Make the world a better place. -- Silicon Valley S01E03
This is an online calculator that calculates the DNA extension, linking number change, and structural state of DNA under given force and torque constraints, with DNA interactions with protein complexes and other DNA-inserts.
Workflow: make the change in master branch, then switch to deployment branch and do the merge. Use the Deployment-AFSBOX branch, since deployment branch has the configs set up in __init__, cpp_calculator, run_cpp, generate_path and src/HTTPconfig.js.
After npm run build, python3 after_build.py to prep for deployment.

The underlying DNA transfer matrix calculator is based on the series of theoretical papers from Yan Jie's group:
- Transfer-matrix calculations of DNA polymer micromechanics under tension and torque constraints AK Efremov, RS Winardhi, J Yan, in Physical Review E 2016 (link)
- Theoretical Methods for Studying DNA Structural Transitions under Applied Mechanical Constraints AK Efremov, RS Winardhi, J Yan, in Polymers 2017 (link)
- Transfer-matrix calculations of the effects of tension and torque constraints on DNA–protein interactions AK Efremov, J Yan, in Nucleic Acids Research 2018 (link)
