Solid-State Dewetting of Polycrystalline Thin Films: a Phase Field Approach
Paul Hoffrogge, Nils Becker, Daniel Schneider +3
Solid-state dewetting is the process by which thin solid films break up and retract on a substrate, forming nanostructures. While dewetting of single-crystalline films is understoo…
Stable developmental patterns of gene expression without morphogen gradients
Maciej Majka, Nils B. Becker, Pieter Rein ten Wolde +2
Gene expression patterns (GEPs) are established by cross-regulating target genes that interpret morphogen gradients. However, as development progresses, morphogen activity is reduc…
Trade-offs between cost and information in cellular prediction
Age J. Tjalma, Vahe Galstyan, Jeroen Goedhart +3
Living cells can leverage correlations in environmental fluctuations to predict the future environment and mount a response ahead of time. To this end, cells need to encode the pas…
Single-molecule stretching experiments of flexible (wormlike) chain molecules in different ensembles: Theory and a potential application of finite chain length effects to nick-counting in DNA
Ralf Everaers, Nils B. Becker, Angelo Rosa
We propose a formalism for deriving force-elongation and elongation-force relations for flexible chain molecules from analytical expressions for their radial distribution function,…
Quantifying fluctuations in reversible enzymatic cycles and clocks
Harmen Wierenga, Pieter Rein ten Wolde, Nils B. Becker
Biochemical reactions are fundamentally noisy at a molecular scale. This limits the precision of reaction networks, but also allows fluctuation measurements which may reveal the st…
eGFRD in all dimensions
Thomas R. Sokolowski, Joris Paijmans, Laurens Bossen +7
Biochemical reactions typically occur at low copy numbers, but at once in crowded and diverse environments. Space and stochasticity therefore play an essential role in biochemical…
