Model of ionic currents through microtubule nanopores and the lumen
Holly Freedman, Vahid Rezania, Avner Priel +3
It has been suggested that microtubules and other cytoskeletal filaments may act as electrical transmission lines. An electrical circuit model of the microtubule is constructed inc…
A Bio-Polymer Transistor: Electrical Amplification by Microtubules
Avner Priel, Arnolt J. Ramos, Jack A. Tuszynski +1
Microtubules (MTs) are important cytoskeletal structures, engaged in a number of specific cellular activities, including vesicular traffic, cell cyto-architecture and motility, cel…
Transitions in Microtubule C-termini conformations as a possible Dendritic signaling phenomenon
Avner Priel, Jack A. Tuszynski, Nancy J. Woolf
We model the dynamical states of the C-termini of tubulin dimers that comprise neuronal microtubules. We use molecular dynamics and other computational tools to explore the time-de…
