Sufficient conditions for the additivity of stall forces generated by multiple filaments or motors

Tripti Bameta, Dipjyoti Das, Dibyendu Das +2

Molecular motors and cytoskeletal filaments work collectively most of the time under opposing forces. This opposing force may be due to cargo carried by motors or resistance coming…

Force-induced dynamical properties of multiple cytoskeletal filaments are distinct from that of single filaments

Dipjyoti Das, Dibyendu Das, Ranjith Padinhateeri

How cytoskeletal filaments collectively undergo growth and shrinkage is an intriguing question. Collective properties of multiple bio-filaments (actin or microtubules) undergoing h…

Collective force generated by multiple biofilaments can exceed the sum of forces due to individual ones

Dipjyoti Das, Dibyendu Das, Ranjith Padinhateeri

Collective dynamics and force generation by cytoskeletal filaments are crucial in many cellular processes. Investigating growth dynamics of a bundle of N independent cytoskeletal f…

Giant number fluctuations in microbial ecologies

Dipjyoti Das, Dibyendu Das, Ashok Prasad

Statistical fluctuations in population sizes of microbes may be quite large depending on the nature of their underlying stochastic dynamics. For example, the variance of the popula…

Broad-tailed force distributions and velocity ordering in a heterogeneous membrane model for collective cell migration

Tripti Bameta, Dipjyoti Das, Sumantra Sarkar +2

Correlated velocity patterns and associated large length-scale transmission of traction forces have been observed in collective live cell migration as a response to a "wound". We a…

Dynamics of a flexible polymer in planar mixed flow

Dipjyoti Das, Sanjib Sabhapandit, Dibyendu Das

We present exact spatio-temporal correlation functions of a Rouse polymer chain submerged in a fluid having planar mixed flow, in the steady state. Using these correlators, determi…
