Interfacial morphodynamics of proliferating microbial communities

A. Martinez-Calvo, C. Trenado-Yuste, H. Lee, J. Gore, N. S. Wingreen, S. S. Datta

The paper develops a continuum model to study interfacial morphodynamics in microbial communities, finding that interface stability depends on cell proliferation rates and substrate friction.

Pattern formation by bacteria-phage interactions

A. Martinez-Calvo, N. S. Wingreen, S. S. Datta

This study develops a theoretical model of bacteria-phage interactions showing how non-reciprocal predator-prey dynamics lead to complex spatial patterns in bacterial and phage organization.

Pump it up: bioelectric stimulation controls tissue shape and size

G. Shim, I. B. Breinyn, A. Martinez-Calvo, D. J. Cohen

This study shows that electrical stimulation can rapidly inflate hollow epithelial tissues by creating ion gradients and osmotic pressure, leading to significant changes in tissue volume and shape.

Roughening instability of growing 3D bacterial colonies

A. Martinez-Calvo, T. Bhattacharjee, R. K. Bay, H. N. Luu, A. M. Hancock, N. S. Wingreen, S. S. Datta

This study shows that 3D bacterial colonies develop a rough, branched morphology due to nutrient limitations, differing from 2D colonies.

Membrane fission during bacterial spore development requires DNA-pumping driven cellular inflation

A. Landajuela, M. Braun, A. Martinez-Calvo, C. D. A. Rodrigues, C. Gomis Perez, T. Doan, D. Z. Rudner, N. S. Wingreen, E. Karatekin

This study shows that DNA-pumping driven forespore inflation generates membrane tension required for FisB-mediated membrane fission during bacterial spore development.

FisB relies on homo-oligomerization and lipid-binding to catalyze membrane fission in bacteria

A. Landajuela, M. Braun, C. D. A. Rodrigues, A. Martinez-Calvo, T. Doan, F. A. Horenkamp, A. Andronicos, V. Shteyn, N. D. Williams, C. Lin, N. S. Wingreen, D. Z. Rudner, E. Karatekin

This study identifies that FisB catalyzes bacterial membrane fission through homo-oligomerization and lipid-binding, without requiring curvature sensing or lipid microdomains.
