Mathematical Modeling of Dynamic Instability in Microtubules
Microtubules are biological polymers that have many functions in cells, such as support and structure in the cytoskeleton, providing avenues and mechanisms for intracellular transportation, and separating chromatids during cell division. Microtubule dynamic instability is an integral part of cell functioning, enabling microtubules to rapidly find and change spatial arrangements and interact wit...
متن کاملNote on the dynamic instability of microtubules
Note on the dynamic instability of microtubules Abstract If the dynamic instability of microtubules follows a gamma distribution then one can associate to it a Cantor set. Microtubules (MTs), the main protein polymeric filaments of the cell cy-toskeleton, are a well-defined biological system where methods in condensed matter, statistical mechanics and the theory of complex systems have been app...
متن کاملDynamic Simulation and Mechanical Properties of Microtubules
This work is conducted to obtain mechanical properties of microtubule. For this aim, interaction energy in alpha-beta, beta-alpha, alpha-alpha, and beta-beta dimers was calculated using the molecular dynamic simulation. Force-distance diagrams for these dimers were obtained using the relation between potential energy and force. Afterwards, instead of each tubulin, one sphere with 55 KDa weight ...

15 صفحه اولInstrinsic oscillations of treadmilling microtubules in a motor bath
We analyse the dynamics of overlapping antiparallel treadmilling microtubules in the presence of crosslinking processive motor proteins that counterbalance an external force. We show that coupling the force-dependent velocity of motors and the kinetics of motor exchange with a bath in the presence of treadmilling leads generically to oscillatory behavior. In addition we show that coupling the p...
