Competition between entropy and energy in network glass: the hidden connection between intermediate phase and liquid-liquid transition
J. Quetzalcoatl Toledo-Marin, Le Yan
In network glass including chalcogenides, the network topology of microscopic structures can be tuned by changing the chemical compositions. As the composition is varied, an interm…
Mechanics of allostery: contrasting the induced fit and population shift scenarios
Riccardo Ravasio, Solange Flatt, Le Yan +3
In allosteric proteins, binding a ligand can affect function at a distant location, for example by changing the binding affinity of a substrate at the active site. The induced fit…
Phylodynamics of rapidly adapting pathogens: extinction and speciation of a Red Queen
Le Yan, Richard Neher, Boris I Shraiman
Rapidly evolving pathogens like influenza viruses can persist by accumulating antigenic novelty fast enough to evade the adaptive immunity of the host population, yet without conti…
Multicellular rosettes drive fluid-solid transition in epithelial tissues
Le Yan, Dapeng Bi
Models for confluent biological tissues often describe the network formed by cells as a triple-junction network, similar to foams. However, higher order vertices or multicellular r…
Entropy favors heterogeneous structures of networks near the rigidity threshold
Le Yan
The dynamical properties and mechanical functions of amorphous materials are governed by their microscopic structures, particularly the elasticity of the interaction networks, whic…
Principles for optimal cooperativity in allosteric materials
Le Yan, Riccardo Ravasio, Carolina Brito +1
Allosteric proteins transmit a mechanical signal induced by binding a ligand. However, understanding the nature of the information transmitted and the architectures optimizing such…
