Dynamics in Steady State In Vitro Acto-Myosin Networks
Adar Sonn-Segev, Anne Bernheim-Groswasser, Yael Roichman
It is well known that many biochemical processes in the cell such as gene regulation, growth signals and activation of ion channels, rely on mechanical stimuli. However, the mechan…
Particle manipulation beyond the diffraction limit using structured super-oscillating light beams
Brijesh Kumar Singh, Harel Nagar, Yael Roichman +1
The diffraction limited resolution of light focused by a lens was derived in 1873 by Ernst Abbe. Later in 1952, a method to reach sub-diffraction light spots was proposed by modula…
Scale dependence of mechanics and dynamics of active gels with increasing motor concentration
Adar Sonn-Segev, Anne Bernheim-Groswasser, Yael Roichman
The cytoskeleton protein actin assembles into large bundles when supporting stresses in the cell, but grows into a fine branched network to induce cell motion. Such self-organizati…
Diffusion of a nano-wire through an obstacle field
Dror Kasimov, Tamir Admon, Yael Roichman
We report the first experimental realization of a rod diffusing in a two dimensional obstacle field following the single rod dynamics. We use a silver nanowire as our rod and two t…
