Generalized models for bond percolation transitions of associative polymers
Jeong-Mo Choi, Anthony A. Hyman, Rohit V. Pappu
Associative polymers with sticker-and-spacer architectures undergo phase transitions that combine phase separation and bond percolation. Here, we generalize mean-field models for b…

Salt-dependent rheology and surface tension of protein condensates using optical traps
Louise M. Jawerth, Mahdiye Ijavi, Martine Ruer +5
An increasing number of proteins with intrinsically disordered domains have been shown to phase separate in buffer to form liquid-like phases. These protein condensates serve as si…

The mitotic spindle in the one-cell C. elegans embryo is positioned with high precision and stability
Jacques Pecreaux, Stefanie Redemann, Zahraa Alayan +5
Precise positioning of the mitotic spindle is important for specifying the plane of cell division, which in turn determines how the cytoplasmic contents are partitioned into the da…
