Energetic gradients emerge in developing motor-microtubule structures

The paper measures ATP gradients in motor-microtubule assemblies and shows they are sustained by energy consumption, with implications for cytoskeletal organization.

Force Propagation in Active Cytoskeletal Networks

This paper shows that increasing microtubule bundle length in active networks triggers a percolation transition, enabling global force generation and mechanical work.

Motor-driven microtubule diffusion in a photobleached dynamical coordinate system

The paper investigates motor-driven microtubule network contraction and identifies a diffusive-like spread within the network, showing a conserved relationship between contraction rates and diffusion constants.

Illuminating the uncharacterized regulatory genome of E. coli with massively parallel reporters

The paper identifies regulatory elements and transcription factors in E. coli genes across diverse environments using experimental and computational methods.
