Relaxing #beachread 🏝️: filaments that grow and shrink by burning energy🔥, death💀, assembly, division ring formation 💍, and more in our new paper in @NaturePhysics nature.com/articles/s4156…. Great collab with @nartimsoole & @seamus_holden , led by soon-doctor @vainhilla96. ⤵️
www.nature.com Self-organization of mortal filaments and its role in bacterial division ring formation Nature Physics - Treadmilling of cytoskeletal filaments is crucial for their functional self-organization. Now the mechanism underpinning this collective organization is shown to be the dissolution...
Did you know cell filaments love to treadmill? 🔄 They grow and shrink on opposite ends and burn energy doing it! But why? How does it drive self-organisation and bacterial division? Dive into our new publication ft. @SaricLab @nartimsoole @seamus_holden labs to find out! 🧫🔬🖥️

Thank you @AllenInstitute for seeing the magic in #membranebiophysics 🪄✨ We’re thrilled happy to be a part of this cohort!

Using simulations, synthetic cells, and live archaeal cell communities, @SaricLab, @KGoepfrich, and Buzz Baum are challenging the assumption that the cell membrane is passive and only changes shape when acted upon.

A great 🇬🇧-🇦🇹team of @BillieMeadowcr1 (currently cycling 🚴‍♀️ across 🇺🇸) @IvnPla @v_sorichetti and Eryk teamed up with with @NargessKGharibi and @YanlanMao to simulate collagen-iv remodelling under strain and enzymatic activity. @ISTAustria
@LMCB_UCL @UCL_IPLS More ⬇️
Collagen-IV networks rule the #mechanics of our epithelia, but we know little about how they reshape. Our new preprint (with the 1st coarse-grained MD models of #collagen-IV!) shows how consuming energy during remodelling might make the difference: 📑tiny.cc/s6fqzz 🧵
