Role of the Number of Microtubules in Chromosome Segregation during Cell Division

Zsolt Bertalan, Zoe Budrikis, Caterina A. M. La Porta +1

Faithful segregation of genetic material during cell division requires alignment of chromosomes between two spindle poles and attachment of their kinetochores to each of the poles.…

Rotational instability of the electric polarization and divergence of the shear elastic compliance

F. Cordero, H. T. Langhammer, T. Müller +2

The rotational instability of the electric polarization P during phase transformations between ferroelectric phases is of great practical interest, since it may be accompanied by e…

Overshoot during phenotypic switching of cancer cell populations

Alessandro L. Sellerio, Emilio Ciusani, Noa Bossel Ben-Moshe +7

The dynamics of tumor cell populations is hotly debated: do populations derive hierarchically from a subpopulation of cancer stem cells (CSCs), or are stochastic transitions that m…

Navigation strategies of motor proteins on decorated tracks

Zsolt Bertalan, Zoe Budrikis, Caterina A. M. La Porta +1

Motor proteins display widely different stepping patterns as they move on microtubule tracks, from the deterministic linear or helical motion performed by the protein kinesin to th…

Dust remobilization in fusion plasmas under steady state conditions

P. Tolias, S. Ratynskaia, M. De Angeli +10

The first combined experimental and theoretical studies of dust remobilization by plasma forces are reported. The main theoretical aspects of remobilization in fusion devices under…

Volume changes during active shape fluctuations in cells

Alessandro Taloni, Elena Kardash, Oguz Umut Salman +3

Cells modify their volume in response to changes in osmotic pressure but it is usually assumed that other active shape variations do not involve significant volume fluctuations. He…
