Active Hydrodynamic Theory of Euchromatin and Heterochromatin
S. Alex Rautu, Alexandra Zidovska, David Saintillan +1
The genome contains genetic information essential for cell's life. The genome's spatial organization inside the cell nucleus is critical for its proper function including gene regu…
Active morphodynamics of intracellular organelles in the trafficking pathway
S. Alex Rautu, Richard G. Morris, Madan Rao
From the Golgi apparatus to endosomes, organelles in the endomembrane system exhibit complex and varied morphologies that are often related to their function. These membrane-bound…
Curvature Instability of Membranes near Rigid Inclusions
S. Alex Rautu
In multicomponent membranes, internal scalar fields may couple to membrane curvature, thus renormalizing the membrane elastic constants and destabilizing the flat membranes. Here,…
The Role of Optical Projection in the Analysis of Membrane Fluctuations
S. Alex Rautu, Davide Orsi, Lorenzo Di Michele +3
We propose a methodology to measure the mechanical properties of membranes from their fluctuations and apply this to optical microscopy measurements of giant unilamellar vesicles o…
