Stochastic threshold in cell size control
Liang Luo, Yang Bai, Xiongfei Fu
Classic models of cell size control consider cells divide while reaching a threshold, e.g. size, age, or size extension. The molecular basis of the threshold involves multiple laye…
Master equation approach to the stochastic accumulation dynamics of bacterial cell cycle
Liang Luo, Yang Bai, Xiongfei Fu
The mechanism of bacterial cell size control has been a mystery for decades, which involves the well-coordinated growth and division in the cell cycle. The revolutionary modern tec…
Limits of feedback control in bacterial chemotaxis
Yann S. Dufour, Xiongfei Fu, Luis Hernandez-Nunez +1
Inputs to signaling pathways can have complex statistics that depend on the environment and on the behavioral response to previous stimuli. Such behavioral feedback is particularly…
Stripe formation in bacterial systems with density-suppressed motility
Xiongfei Fu, Lei-Han Tang, Chenli Liu +3
Engineered bacteria in which motility is reduced by local cell density generate periodic stripes of high and low density when spotted on agar plates. We study theoretically the ori…
