Conformations, correlations, and instabilities of a flexible fiber in an active fluid
Scott Weady, David B. Stein, Alexandra Zidovska +1
Fluid-structure interactions between active and passive components are important for many biological systems to function. A particular example is chromatin in the cell nucleus, whe…
Activity-driven phase transition causes coherent flows of chromatin
Iraj Eshghi, Alexanda Zidovska, Alexander Y. Grosberg
We discover a new type of nonequilibrium phase transition in a model of chromatin dynamics, which accounts for the coherent motions that have been observed in experiment. The coher…
Model chromatin flows: numerical analysis of linear and nonlinear hydrodynamics inside a sphere
Iraj Eshghi, Alexandra Zidovska, Alexander Y. Grosberg
We solve a hydrodynamic model of active chromatin dynamics, within a confined geometry simulating the cell nucleus. Using both analytical and numerical methods, we describe the beh…
