Whop else uses knot theory?

Protein structures, DNA spirals,folded protein strands. They are treated as knots, they tricolor the three braids. Markov colors the surface of those knots, to almost enough resolution that they unravel.

What is new is we can get estimates of external N effects, the kinetic energy generalized to a Markov net. Like relative movement of exposed surface when a protein knot rotates. This is a known, finite set of steps to the protein chemists. We can see the protein jumble crawl through the tissue jungle.
