Classification of Intracellular Protein Patterns from Reactive Equilibria

Henrik Weyer, Ching Yee Leung, Erwin Frey

Self-organized spatial patterns are central to nonequilibrium physics and cell biology, yet locating instabilities in multi-component, reaction-diffusion networks remains challengi…

Pattern Formation Beyond Turing: Physical Principles of Mass-Conserving Reaction--Diffusion Systems

Erwin Frey, Henrik Weyer

Intracellular protein patterns govern essential cellular functions by dynamically redistributing proteins between membrane-bound and cytosolic states, conserving their total number…

Stochastic bubble dynamics in phase-separated scalar active matter

Mingqi Yan, Erwin Frey, Marcus Müller +1

In ABP systems, phase separation is accompanied by the emergence of vapor bubbles within liquid domains. Using large-scale particle-based simulations, we study the stochastic dynam…

Deciphering the Interface Laws of Turing Mixtures and Foams

Henrik Weyer, Tobias A. Roth, Erwin Frey

For cellular functions like division and polarization, protein pattern formation driven by NTPase cycles is a central spatial control strategy. Operating far from equilibrium, no g…

Coarsening dynamics of chemotactic aggregates

Henrik Weyer, David Muramatsu, Erwin Frey

Auto-chemotaxis, the directed movement of cells along gradients in chemicals they secrete, is central to the formation of complex spatiotemporal patterns in biological systems. Sin…

Chemotaxis-induced phase separation

Henrik Weyer, David Muramatsu, Erwin Frey

Chemotaxis allows single cells to self-organize at the population level, as classically described by Keller-Segel models. We show that chemotactic aggregation can be understood usi…

Design principles for fast and efficient self-assembly processes

Florian M. Gartner, Erwin Frey

Self-assembly is a fundamental concept in biology and of significant interest to nanotechnology. Significant progress has been made in characterizing and controlling the properties…
