Order from disorder with intrinsically disordered peptide amphiphiles
Guy Jacoby, Merav Segal Asher, Tamara Ehm +7
Amphiphilic molecules and their self-assembled structures have long been the target of extensive research due to their potential applications in fields ranging from materials desig…
Intrinsically Disordered Proteins at the Nano-scale
Tamara Ehm, Hila Shinar, Sagi Meir +6
The human proteome is enriched in proteins that do not fold into a stable 3D structure. These intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) spontaneously fluctuate between a large numbe…
Machine-learning Iterative Calculation of Entropy for Physical Systems
Amit Nir, Eran Sela, Roy Beck +1
Characterizing the entropy of a system is a crucial, and often computationally costly, step in understanding its thermodynamics. It plays a key role in the study of phase transitio…
Glassy dynamics and memory effects in an intrinsically disordered protein construct
Ian L. Morgan, Ram Avinery, Gil Rahamim +2
Glassy, nonexponential relaxations in globular proteins are typically attributed to conformational behaviors that are missing from intrinsically disordered proteins. Yet, we show t…
Super-resolution SAXS based on PSF engineering and sub-pixel detector translations
Benjamin Gutman, Michael Mrejen, Gil Shabat +3
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) technique enables convenient nanoscopic characterization for various systems and conditions. Nonetheless, lab-based SAXS systems intrinsically s…
Delayed nucleation in lipid particles
Guy Jacoby, Irina Portnaya, Dganit Danino +2
Metastable states in first-order phase-transitions have been traditionally described by classical nucleation theory (CNT). However, recently an increasing number of systems display…
Nanoparticle mobility over a surface as a probe for weak transient disordered peptide-peptide interactions
Indrani Chakraborty, Gil Rahamim, Ram Avinery +2
Weak interactions form the core basis of a vast number of biological processes, in particular, those involving intrinsically disordered proteins. Here, we establish a new technique…
The role of vimentin in regulating cell-invasive migration in dense cultures of breast carcinoma cells
Y. Messica, A. Laser-Azogui, T. Volberg +6
Cell migration and mechanics are tightly regulated by the integrated activities of the various cytoskeletal networks. In cancer cells, cytoskeletal modulations have been implicated…
Universal and accessible entropy estimation using a compression algorithm
Ram Avinery, Micha Kornreich, Roy Beck
Entropy and free-energy estimation are key in thermodynamic characterization of simulated systems ranging from spin models through polymers, colloids, protein structure, and drug-d…
Phosphorylation-induced mechanical regulation of intrinsically disordered neurofilament protein assemblies
Eti Malka-Gibor, Micha Kornreich, Adi Laser-Azogui +4
The biological function of protein assemblies was conventionally equated with a unique three-dimensional protein structure and protein-specific interactions. However, in the past 2…
Neurofilaments function as shock absorbers: compression response arising from disordered proteins
Micha Kornreich, Eti Malka-Gibor, Ben Zuker +2
What can cells gain by using disordered, rather than folded, proteins in the architecture of their skeleton? Disordered proteins take multiple co-existing conformations, and often…
