Explores cellular cytoskeleton components, including actin filaments and microtubules, and discusses solvent-free molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations.
Explores the structure, functions, and dynamics of the cytoskeleton, focusing on filament properties, growth processes, and mechanical requirements.
Covers the structure and mechanics of mammalian cells, adhesion, mechanosensation, mechanotransduction, Rho signaling, actin dynamics, specialized actin organizations, integrins, and nuclear mechanotransduction.
Explores the mechanics of animal cells, including actin assembly and retrograde flow.
Explores the importance of biopolymers and biomembranes in cell mechanics and their flexibility under thermal fluctuations.
Explores chaperones' role in guiding protein folding and preventing misfolding through the functional cycle of Hsp70 and the DnaK chaperone system.
Explores tissue mechanics, cell adhesion, and gastrulation mechanisms, including cell sorting, force balance, and genetic regulation.
