Energy-precision trade-off in mitotic oscillators revealed by ATP modulation in artificial cells

Shiyuan Wang, Liam Yourston, Gembu Maryu, Yeonghoon Kim, Derek Walker, Usha Kadiyala, Qiong Yang

This study shows that mitotic oscillators trade energy for precision, with higher energy improving timing accuracy but reducing speed, and embryonic cell cycles balance speed and accuracy through metabolic compromise.

Matrix Rigidity Governs Switch-Like Oscillatory State Transitions of the Segmentation Clock in Isolated Presomitic Mesoderm Cells

Chun-Yen Sung, Yuqian Yang, Usha Kadiyala, Owen Blanchard, Liam Yourston, Derek Walker, Linyuan Li, Shiyu Sun, Zhaoyi Xu, Mariela Lopez Gonzalez, Jianping Fu, Qiong Yang

The paper investigates how substrate rigidity affects oscillatory behavior in zebrafish presomitic mesoderm cells, finding a switch-like transition at a critical rigidity threshold.
