Distribution of the Radius of Gyration for an ISAW
Antony Lesage, Vincent Dahirel, Jean-Marc Victor +1
We aim at calculating an explicit expression for the finite-size probability distribution of the radius of gyration of an Interacting Self-Avoiding Walk (ISAW), as a function o…
A Brownian dynamics study of liquid-liquid phase separation in multi-scale chromatin networks
Léa Beaulès, Judith Miné-Hattab, Pierre Illien +1
In living cells, proteins involved in specialized biochemical functions are often spatially organized within biomolecular condensates. Increasing evidence suggests that some of the…
Chemically active droplets in crowded environments
Jacques Fries, Roxanne Berthin, Chengjie Luo +4
Biomolecular condensates are essential for cellular organization and result from phase separation in systems far from thermodynamic equilibrium. Among various models, chemically ac…
Control of encounter kinetics by chemically active droplets
Jacques Fries, Roxanne Berthin, Marie Jardat +2
Biomolecular condensates play a crucial role in the spatial organization of living matter. These membrane-less organelles, resulting from liquid-liquid phase separation, operate fa…
Active droplets controlled by enzymatic reactions
Jacques Fries, Javier Diaz, Marie Jardat +3
The formation of condensates is now considered as a major organization principle of eukaryotic cells. Several studies have recently shown that the properties of these condensates a…
Microscopic and stochastic simulations of chemically active droplets
Roxanne Berthin, Jacques Fries, Marie Jardat +2
Biomolecular condensates play a central role in the spatial organization of living matter. Their formation is now well understood as a form of liquid-liquid phase separation that o…
