Roadmap for Condensates in Cell Biology
Dilimulati Aierken, Sebastian Aland, Stefano Bo +38
Biomolecular condensates govern essential cellular processes yet elude description by traditional equilibrium models. This roadmap, distilled from structured discussions at a works…
Activity-driven phase transition causes coherent flows of chromatin
Iraj Eshghi, Alexanda Zidovska, Alexander Y. Grosberg
We discover a new type of nonequilibrium phase transition in a model of chromatin dynamics, which accounts for the coherent motions that have been observed in experiment. The coher…
Model chromatin flows: numerical analysis of linear and nonlinear hydrodynamics inside a sphere
Iraj Eshghi, Alexandra Zidovska, Alexander Y. Grosberg
We solve a hydrodynamic model of active chromatin dynamics, within a confined geometry simulating the cell nucleus. Using both analytical and numerical methods, we describe the beh…
Stretching of a fractal polymer around a disc reveals KPZ-like statistics
Kirill E. Polovnikov, Sergei K. Nechaev, Alexander Y. Grosberg
While stretching of a polymer along a flat surface is hardly different from the classical Pincus problem of pulling chain ends in free space, the role of curved geometry in conform…
Reentrant Transitions in a Mixture of Small and Big Particles Interacting via Soft Repulsive Potential
Itay Azizi, Alexander Y. Grosberg, Yitzhak Rabin
We report the first observation of temperature-controlled reentrant transition in simulations of mixtures of small and big particles interacting via soft repulsive potential in 2D.…
Non-Equilibrium Interaction Between Catalytic Colloids: Boundary Conditions and Penetration Depth
Alexander Y. Grosberg, Yitzhak Rabin
Spherical colloids that catalyze the interconversion reaction between solute molecules and whose concentration at infinity is maintained away from…
