Active flow-driven DNA remodeling generates millimeter-scale mechanical oscillations
Maya Levanon, Noa S. Goldberg, Dvir Cohen +3
In living systems, DNA undergoes continuous and rhythmic mechanical remodeling through condensation, looping, and disentangling to regulate gene expression, segregate chromosomes,…
Controlling liquid-liquid phase behavior with an active fluid
Alexandra M. Tayar, Fernando Caballero, Trevor Anderberg +3
Demixing of binary liquids is a ubiquitous transition, which is explained using a well-established thermodynamic formalism that requires equality of intensive thermodynamics parame…
Active liquid crystals powered by force-sensing DNA-motor clusters
Alexandra M. Tayar, Michael F. Hagan, Zvonimir Dogic
Cytoskeletal active nematics exhibit striking non-equilibrium dynamics that are powered by energy-consuming molecular motors. To gain insight into the structure and mechanics of th…
Multiscale Microtubule Dynamics in Active Nematics
Linnea M. Lemma, Michael M. Norton, Alexandra M. Tayar +5
In microtubule-based active nematics, motor-driven extensile motion of microtubule bundles powers chaotic large-scale dynamics. We quantify the interfilament sliding motion both in…
