Figure 4. The first and second slowest motion modes of the DNA-free system (A and C) and DNA-bound system (B and D).

Figure 4

The length of cone is positively-correlated with motive magnitude, and the orientation of cone indicates motive direction. The two systems have the similar slow motions. The first slowest motion mainly appears as the open-close movements between the two ends of the superhelical structure (A and B). The second slowest motion shows a twisting around each end (C and D).
