Sub-cellular mRNA localization modulates the regulation of gene expression by small RNAs in bacteria
Hamid Teimouri, Elgin Korkmazhan, Joel Stavans +1
Small non-coding RNAs can exert significant regulatory activity on gene expression in bacteria. In recent years, substantial progress has been made in understanding bacterial gene…
High fidelity of RecA-catalyzed recombination: a watchdog of genetic diversity
Dror Sagi, Tsvi Tlusty, Joel Stavans
Homologous recombination plays a key role in generating genetic diversity, while maintaining protein functionality. The mechanisms by which RecA enables a single-stranded segment o…
Coiling Instability of Multilamellar Membrane Tubes with Anchored Polymers
Ilan Tsafrir, Marie-Alice Guedeau-Boudeville, Daniel Kandel +1
We study experimentally a coiling instability of cylindrical multilamellar stacks of phospholipid membranes, induced by polymers with hydrophobic anchors grafted along their hydrop…
Pearling Instabilities of Membrane Tubes with Anchored Polymers
Ilan Tsafrir, Dror Sagi, Tamar Arzi +4
We have studied the pearling instability induced on hollow tubular lipid vesicles by hydrophilic polymers with hydrophobic side groups along the backbone. The results show that the…
Coiling of Cylindrical Membrane Stacks with Anchored Polymers
Vidar Frette, Ilan Tsafrir, Marie-Alice Guedeau-Boudeville +3
We study experimentally a coiling instability of cylindrical multilamellar stacks of phospholipid membranes, induced by polymers with hydrophobic anchors grafted along their hydrop…
