To investigate the structural dynamics of the homology pairing of polymers,we mod- eled the scenario of homologous chromosome pairings during meiosis inSchizosaccharomyces pombe, one of the simplest model organisms of eukaryotes.We consider a simple model consist- ing of pairs of homologous polymers withthe same structures that are confined in a cylindrical container, whichrepresents the local parts of chromosomes contained in an elongated nucleus ofS. pombe. Brownian dynamics simulations of this model showed that the excludedvolume effects among non-homological chromosomes and the transitional dynamicsof nuclear shape serve to enhance the pairing of homologous chromosomes.

Excluded volume effect enhances the homology pairing of model chromosomes
