Molecular Model of the Contractile Ring
D. Biron, E. Alvarez-Lacalle, Tsvi Tlusty +1
We present a model for the actin contractile ring of adherent animal cells. The model suggests that the actin concentration within the ring and consequently the power that the ring…
Inter-filament Attractions Narrow the Length Distribution of Actin Filaments
David Biron, Elisha Moses, Itamar Borukhov +1
We show that the exponential length distribution that is typical of actin filaments under physiological conditions dramatically narrows in the presence of (i) crosslinker proteins…
Cytokinesis: the initial linear phase crosses over to a multiplicity of non-linear endings
D. Biron, P. Libros, D. Sagi +2
We investigate the final stage of cytokinesis in two types of amoeba, pointing out the existence of biphasic furrow contraction. The first phase is characterized by a constant cont…
Slow Coarsening in a Class of Driven Systems
Y. Kafri, D. Biron, M. R. Evans +1
The coarsening process in a class of driven systems is studied. These systems have previously been shown to exhibit phase separation and slow coarsening in one dimension. We consid…
