The switching dynamics of the bacterial flagellar motor
Siebe B. van Albada, Sorin Tanase-Nicola, Pieter Rein ten Wolde
Many swimming bacteria are propelled by flagellar motors that stochastically switch between the clockwise and counterclockwise rotation direction. While the switching dynamics are…
Homogeneous nucleation under shear in a two-dimensional Ising model: cluster growth, coalescence and breakup
Rosalind J. Allen, Chantal Valeriani, Sorin Tanase-Nicola +2
We compute rates and pathways for nucleation in a sheared two dimensional Ising model with Metropolis spin flip dynamics, using Forward Flux Sampling (FFS). We find a peak in the n…
Reaction Brownian Dynamics and the effect of spatial fluctuations on the gain of a push-pull network
Marco J. Morelli, Pieter Rein ten Wolde
Brownian Dynamics algorithms are widely used for simulating soft-matter and biochemical systems. In recent times, their application has been extended to the simulation of coarse-gr…
Chance and necessity in chromosomal gene distributions
Rutger Hermsen, Pieter Rein ten Wolde, Sarah Teichmann
By analyzing the spacing of genes on chromosomes, we find that transcriptional and RNA-processing regulatory sequences outside coding regions leave footprints on the distribution o…
