Strength and stability of active ligand-receptor bonds: a microtubule attached to a wall by molecular motor tethers
Dipanwita Ghanti, Raymond W. Friddle, Debashish Chowdhury
We develop a stochastic kinetic model of a pre-formed attachment of a mictrotuble (MT) with a cell cortex, in which the MT is tethered to the cell by a group of active motor protei…

Molecular force spectroscopy of kinetochore-microtubule attachment {\it in silico}: Mechanical signatures of an unusual catch bond and collective effects
Dipanwita Ghanti, Shubhadeep Patra, Debashish Chowdhury
Measurement of the life time of attachments formed by a single microtubule (MT) with a single kinetochore (kt) {\it in-vitro} under force-clamp conditions had earlier revealed a ca…
