Surfing on protein waves: proteophoresis as a mechanism for bacterial genome partitioning

Jean-Charles Walter, Jérôme Dorignac, Vladimir Lorman +6

Efficient bacterial chromosome segregation typically requires the coordinated action of a three-components, fueled by adenosine triphosphate machinery called the partition complex.…

Constraining stellar physics from red-giant stars in binaries - stellar rotation, mixing processes and stellar activity

P. G. Beck, T. Kallinger, K. Pavlovski +10

The unparalleled photometric data obtained by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope has led to an improved understanding of stellar structure and evolution - in particular for solar-like o…

Torque-Induced Rotational Dynamics in Polymers: Torsional Blobs and Thinning

Michiel Laleman, Marco Baiesi, Boris P. Belotserkovskii +3

By using the blob theory and computer simulations, we investigate the properties of a linear polymer performing a stationary rotational motion around a long impenetrable rod. In pa…

Probing a label-free local bend in DNA by single-molecule Tethered Particle Motion

Annaël Brunet, Sébastien Chevalier, Nicolas Destainville +5

Being capable of characterizing DNA local bending is essential to understand thoroughly many biological processes because they involve a local bending of the double helix axis, eit…

Dependence of DNA persistence length on ionic strength of solutions with monovalent and divalent salts: a joint theory-experiment study

Annaël Brunet, Catherine Tardin, Laurence Salomé +3

Using high-throughput Tethered Particle Motion single molecule experiments, the double-stranded DNA persistence length, , is measured in solutions with Na and Mg io…

Rotational dynamics of entangled polymers

Jean-Charles Walter, Michiel Laleman, Marco Baiesi +1

Some recent results on the rotational dynamics of polymers are reviewed and extended. We focus here on the relaxation of a polymer, either flexible or semiflexible, initially wrapp…

Probing DNA conformational changes with high temporal resolution by Tethered Particle Motion

Manoel Manghi, Catherine Tardin, Julien Baglio +3

The Tethered Particle Motion (TPM) technique informs about conformational changes of DNA molecules, e.g. upon looping or interaction with proteins, by tracking the Brownian motion…
