Intra- and intercellular fluctuations in Min-protein dynamics decrease with cell length
Elisabeth Fischer-Friedrich, Giovanni Meacci, Joe Lutkenhaus +2
Self-organization of proteins in space and time is of crucial importance for the functioning of cellular processes. Often, this organization takes place in the presence of strong r…
The Effects of Stator Compliance, Backs Steps, Temperature, and Clockwise Rotation on the Torque-Speed Curve of Bacterial Flagellar Motor
Giovanni Meacci, Ganhui Lan, Yuhai Tu
Rotation of a single bacterial flagellar motor is powered by multiple stators tethered to the cell wall. In a "power-stroke" model the observed independence of the speed at low loa…
Dynamics of the bacterial flagellar motor with multiple stators - Supporting Information
G. Meacci, Y. Tu
In this supporting information we briefly describe the torque-speed measurement procedure. We show the hook spring compliance used in the simulations. We analyze the distribution f…
Dynamics of the bacterial flagellar motor with multiple stators
G. Meacci, Y. Tu
The bacterial flagellar motor drives the rotation of flagellar filaments and enables many species of bacteria to swim. Torque is generated by interaction of stator units, anchored…
Mobility of Min-proteins in Escherichia coli measured by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy
G. Meacci, J. Ries, E. Fischer-Friedrich +3
In the bacterium Escherichia coli, selection of the division site involves pole-to-pole oscillations of the proteins MinD and MinE. Different oscillation mechanisms based on cooper…
Min-oscillations in Escherichia coli induced by interactions of membrane-bound proteins
G. Meacci, K. Kruse
During division it is of primary importance for a cell to correctly determine the site of cleavage. The bacterium Escherichia coli divides in the center, producing two daughter cel…
