Distribution of lifetimes of kinetochore-microtubule attachments: interplay of energy landscape, molecular motors and microtubule (de-)polymerization
Ajeet K. Sharma, Blerta Shtylla, Debashish Chowdhury
Before a cell divides into two daughter cells, chromosomes are replicated resulting in two sister chromosomes embracing each other. Each sister chromosome is bound to a separate pr…

A theoretical model for attachment lifetimes of kinetochore-microtubules: Mechano-kinetic "catch-bond" mechanism for error-correction
Blerta Shtylla, Debashish Chowdhury
Before cell division, two identical copies of chromosomes are pulled apart by microtubule (MT) filaments that approach the chromosomes from the opposite poles a mitotic spindle. Co…
