Entropy of water and the temperature-induced stiffening of amyloid networks
Slav A. Semerdzhiev, Saskia Lindhoud, Anja Stefanovic +3
In water, networks of semi-flexible fibrils of the protein -synuclein stiffen significantly with increasing temperature. We make plausible that this reversible stiffening is a r…
Transient Binding and Dissipation in Semi-flexible Polymer Networks
O. Lieleg, M. M. A. E. Claessens, Y. Luan +1
While polymer solutions lack the mechanical stability only transiently cross-linked networks can fulfill the competing requirements of structural stability and maximal energy dissi…
Mechanics of bundled semiflexible polymer networks
O. Lieleg, M. M. A. E. Claessens, C. Heussinger +2
While actin bundles are used by living cells for structural fortification, the microscopic origin of the elasticity of bundled networks is not understood. Here, we show that above…
Cytoskeletal bundle bending, buckling, and stretching behavior
Mark Bathe, Claus Heussinger, Mireille Claessens +2
F-actin bundles constitute principal components of a multitude of cytoskeletal processes including stereocilia, filopodia, microvilli, neurosensory bristles, cytoskeletal stress fi…
