.. class:: warningmark

At present, this tool is only suitable for small genomes (yeast) since entire chromosomes must be loaded into memory.

-----

Equilibrium nucleosome distribution is modeled as a one-dimensional fluid of hard rods adsorbing and moving within an external potential. This tool provides a simplified version of the DynaPro_ algorithm for a single factor interacting with hard-core repulsion.

**Syntax**

- **Energy landscape** is the external potential function for each genomic base pair, and must be in Wig format.
- **Nucleosome size** is the hard-core interaction size.
