Competing addition processes give distinct growth regimes in the assembly of 1D filaments
Sk Ashif Akram, Tyler Brown, Stephen Whitelam +3
We present a model to describe the concentration-dependent growth of protein filaments. Our model contains two states, a low entropy/high affinity ordered state and a high entropy/…
Deformable and robust core-shell protein microcapsules templated by liquid-liquid phase separated microdroplets
Yufan Xu, Yi Shen, Thomas C. T. Michaels +13
Microcapsules are a key class of microscale materials with applications in areas ranging from personal care to biomedicine, and with increasing potential to act as extracellular ma…
Kinetics of spontaneous filament nucleation via oligomers: insights from theory and simulation
Anđela Šarić, Thomas C. T. Michaels, Alessio Zaccone +2
Nucleation processes are at the heart of a large number of phenomena, from cloud formation to protein crystallization. A recently emerging area where nucleation is highly relevant…
Consistent treatment of hydrophobicity in protein lattice models accounts for cold denaturation
Erik van Dijk, Patrick Varilly, Tuomas Knowles +2
The hydrophobic effect stabilizes the native structure of proteins by minimizing the unfavourable interactions between hydrophobic residues and water through the formation of a hyd…
