Active flow-driven DNA remodeling generates millimeter-scale mechanical oscillations
Maya Levanon, Noa S. Goldberg, Dvir Cohen +3
In living systems, DNA undergoes continuous and rhythmic mechanical remodeling through condensation, looping, and disentangling to regulate gene expression, segregate chromosomes,…
An equation of motion for unsteady frictional slip pulses
Eran Bouchbinder
Frictional sliding, e.g., earthquakes along geological faults, are mediated either by frictional crack-like ruptures, where interfacial (fault) slip is accumulated during the entir…
Yielding and memory in a driven mean-field model of glasses
Makoto Suda, Edan Lerner, Eran Bouchbinder
Glassy systems reveal a wide variety of generic behaviors, which lack a unified theoretical description. Here, we study a mean-field model, recently shown to reproduce the universa…
The strain-stiffening critical exponents in polymer networks and their universality
Zibin Zhang, Eran Bouchbinder, Edan Lerner
Disordered athermal biopolymer materials, such as collagen networks that constitute a major component in extracellular matrices and various connective tissues, are initially soft a…
