Comparison of explicit and mean-field models of cytoskeletal filaments with crosslinking motors
Adam R. Lamson, Jeffrey M. Moore, Fang Fang +3
In cells, cytoskeletal filament networks are responsible for cell movement, growth, and division. Filaments in the cytoskeleton are driven and organized by crosslinking molecular m…
Contributions of microtubule dynamic instability and rotational diffusion to kinetochore capture
Robert Blackwell, Oliver Sweezy-Schindler, Christopher Edelmaier +8
Microtubule dynamic instability allows search and capture of kinetochores during spindle formation, an important process for accurate chromosome segregation during cell division. R…
Microtubule depolymerization by the kinesin-8 motor Kip3p: a mathematical model
L. E. Hough, Anne Schwabe, Matthew A. Glaser +2
Proteins from the kinesin-8 family promote microtubule (MT) depolymerization, a process thought to be important for the control of microtubule length in living cells. In addition t…
