Analysis of microtubule motion due to drag from kinesin walkers
J. M. Deutsch, M. E. Brunner, William M. Saxton
We analyze the nonlinear waves that propagate on a microtubule that is tethered at its minus end due to kinesin walking on it, as is seen during the fluid mixing caused by cytoplas…

The mechanics of a microscopic mixer: microtubules and cytoplasmic streaming in Drosophila oocytes
J. M. Deutsch, M. E. Brunner, William M. Saxton
Large scale motion of cytoplasm called cytoplasmic streaming occurs in some large eukaryotic cells to stir the cell's constituents. In Drosophila oocytes, microtubules have been ob…
