Modeling and mechanical perturbations reveal how spatially regulated anchorage gives rise to spatially distinct mechanics across the mammalian spindle
Pooja Suresh, Vahe Galstyan, Rob Phillips +1
During cell division, the spindle generates force to move chromosomes. In mammals, microtubule bundles called kinetochore-fibers (k-fibers) attach to and segregate chromosomes. To…
Allostery and Kinetic Proofreading
Vahe Galstyan, Rob Phillips
Kinetic proofreading is an error correction mechanism present in the processes of the central dogma and beyond, and typically requires the free energy of nucleotide hydrolysis for…
Proofreading through spatial gradients
Vahe Galstyan, Kabir Husain, Fangzhou Xiao +2
Key enzymatic processes in biology use the nonequilibrium error correction mechanism called kinetic proofreading to enhance their specificity. Kinetic proofreading typically requir…
Combinatorial Control through Allostery
Vahe Galstyan, Luke Funk, Tal Einav +1
Many instances of cellular signaling and transcriptional regulation involve switch-like molecular responses to the presence or absence of input ligands. To understand how these res…
A note on the breathing mode of an elastic sphere in Newtonian and complex fluids
Vahe Galstyan, On Shun Pak, Howard A. Stone
Experiments on the acoustic vibrations of elastic nanostructures in fluid media have been used to study the mechanical properties of materials, as well as for mechanical and biolog…
