Control of morphology and topology in a lattice model of branching morphogenesis
Christian Hanauer, Frank Jülicher, Efe Ilker
We present a lattice model for morphogen-controlled branching morphogenesis which combines ideas and concepts from non-equilibrium physics and developmental biology. In this model,…

Theory of Active Intracellular Transport by DNA-relaying
Christian Hanauer, Silke Bergeler, Erwin Frey +1
The spatiotemporal organization of bacterial cells is crucial for the active segregation of replicating chromosomes. In several species, including Caulobacter crescentus, the ATPas…
