Emergence of homochirality via template-directed ligation in an RNA reactor
Gabin Laurent, Tobias Göppel, David Lacoste +1
RNA in extant biological systems is homochiral; it consists exclusively of D-ribonucleotides rather than L-ribonucleotides. How the homochirality of RNA emerged is not known. Here,…
Structural constraints limit the regime of optimal flux in autocatalytic reaction networks
Armand Despons, Yannick de Decker, David Lacoste
Autocatalytic chemical networks play a predominant role in a large number of natural systems such as in metabolic pathways and in ecological networks. Despite recent efforts, the p…
Cell lineage statistics with incomplete population trees
Arthur Genthon, Takashi Nozoe, Luca Peliti +1
Cell lineage statistics is a powerful tool for inferring cellular parameters, such as division rate, death rate or the population growth rate. Yet, in practice such an analysis suf…
Cell behavior in the face of uncertainty
David Lacoste, Olivier Rivoire, David S. Tourigny
Organisms that grow and survive in uncertain environments may need to change their physiological state as the environment changes. When the environment is uncertain, one strategy k…
Adaptive strategy in Kelly's horse races model
Armand Despons, David Lacoste, Luca Peliti
We formulate an adaptive version of Kelly's horse model in which the gambler learns from past race results using Bayesian inference. A known asymptotic scaling for the difference b…
Branching processes with resetting as a model for cell division
Arthur Genthon, Reinaldo García-García, David Lacoste
We study the Stochastic Thermodynamics of cell growth and division using a theoretical framework based on branching processes with resetting. Cell division may be split into two su…
