Molecular simulation approaches to probing the effects of mechanical forces in the actin cytoskeleton
Fatemah Mukadum, Willmor J. Pena Ccoa, Glen M. Hocky
In this article we give our perspective on the successes and promise of various molecular and coarse-grained simulation approaches to probing the effect of mechanical forces in the…
Design principles for selective self-assembly of active networks
Simon L. Freedman, Glen M. Hocky, Shiladitya Banerjee +1
Living cells dynamically modulate the local morphologies of their actin cytoskeletons to perform biological functions, including force transduction, intracellular transport, and ce…
A versatile framework for simulating the dynamic mechanical structure of cytoskeletal networks
Simon L. Freedman, Shiladitya Banerjee, Glen M. Hocky +1
Computer simulations can aid in understanding how collective materials properties emerge from interactions between simple constituents. Here, we introduce a coarse-grained model th…
