Table 2.

Characteristic time constant as function of the extension, obtained by fitting the force relaxation curves in Fig. 4A with a single-exponential function

Extension (μm) 21.5 22.5 23.5 24.5 25.5

Time constant τFR (s) 0.23 0.33 0.64 1.13 2.54

The DNA-YOYO complex was pulled to the present extension at 3 μm/s pulling speed. Fitted curves are presented in Fig. S2.
