Imaging Dynamic Microtubules and Associated Proteins by Simultaneous Interference-Reflection and Total-Internal-Reflection-Fluorescence Microscopy
Yazgan Tuna, Amer Al-Hiyasat, Jonathon Howard
Several techniques have been employed for the direct visualization of cytoskeletal filaments and their associated proteins. Total-internal-reflection-fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy…
Herding of proteins by the ends of shrinking polymers
Amer Al-Hiyasat, Yazgan Tuna, Yin-Wei Kuo +1
The control of biopolymer length is mediated by proteins that localize to polymer ends and regulate polymerization dynamics. Several mechanisms have been proposed to achieve end lo…
In vitro reconstitution of microtubule dynamics and severing imaged by label-free interference reflection microscopy
Yin-wei Kuo, Jonathon Howard
The dynamic architecture of the microtubule cytoskeleton is crucial for cell division, motility and morphogenesis. The dynamic properties of microtubules - growth, shrinkage, nucle…
Ciliary beating patterns map onto a low-dimensional behavioral space that accords with a simple mechanochemical model
Veikko Geyer, Jonathon Howard, Pablo Sartori
Biological systems are robust to perturbations at both the genetic and environmental levels. Yet, these same perturbations can elicit variation in behavior. The interplay between f…
Morphology of Fly Larval Class IV Dendrites Accords with a Random Branching and Contact Based Branch Deletion Model
Sujoy Ganguly, Olivier Trottier, Xin Liang +2
Dendrites are branched neuronal processes that receive input signals from other neurons or the outside world [1]. To maintain connectivity as the organism grows, dendrites must als…
The mitotic spindle in the one-cell C. elegans embryo is positioned with high precision and stability
Jacques Pecreaux, Stefanie Redemann, Zahraa Alayan +5
Precise positioning of the mitotic spindle is important for specifying the plane of cell division, which in turn determines how the cytoplasmic contents are partitioned into the da…
