Pulling helices inside bacteria: imperfect helices and rings
We study steady-state configurations of intrinsically-straight elastic filaments constrained within rod-shaped bacteria that have applied forces distributed along their length. Perfect steady-state helices result from axial ... -
Self-organization of the MinE protein ring in subcellular Min oscillations
We model the self-organization of the MinE ring that is observed during subcellular oscillations of the proteins MinD and MinE within the rod-shaped bacterium Escherichia coli. With a steady-state approximation, we can ... -
Steady-state helices of the actin homolog MreB inside bacteria: dynamics without motors
Within individual bacteria, we combine force-dependent polymerization dynamics of individual MreB protofilaments with an elastic model of protofilament bundles buckled into helical configurations. We use variational ... -
Temperature dependence of MinD oscillation in Escherichia coli: Running hot and fast
