Pde-Constrained Optimization For Nuclear Mechanics

We propose an image based PDE-constrained optimisation framework to compute the dynamical quantities of a cell nucleus undergoing deformation. It allows retrieving the displacement, strain and stress at each pixel of the nuclear domain, as well as the trac ...

A non-twisting flux tube for local gyrokinetic simulations

Stephan Brunner, Justin Richard Ball

Local gyrokinetic simulations use a field-aligned domain that twists due to the magnetic shear of the background magnetic equilibrium. However, if the magnetic shear is strong and/or the domain is long, the twist can become so extreme that it fails to prop ...

The Mammalian Membrane Microenvironment Regulates the Sequential Attachment of Bacteria to Host Cells

Alexandre Louis André Persat, Xavier Jean-Yves Pierrat, Jeremy Pak Hei Wong

Pathogen attachment to host tissue is critical in the progress of many infections. Bacteria use adhesion in vivo to stabilize colonization and subsequently regulate the deployment of contact-dependent virulence traits. To specifically target host cells, th ...

On The Behavior Of Clamped Plates Under Large Compression

We determine the asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues of clamped plates under large compression by relating this problem to eigenvalues of the Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions. Using the method of fundamental solutions, we then carry out a numerical ...

Post-deposition control of ferroelastic stripe domains and internal electric field by thermal treatment

Nava Setter, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Ludwig Feigl, Monika Iwanowska

The dependence of the formation of ferroelastic stripe domain patterns on the thermal history is investigated by detailed piezoresponse force microscopy and X-ray diffraction experiments after and during annealing of tensile strained tetragonal Pb(Ti,Zr)O- ...

Single-Molecule Imaging Deciphers the Relation between Mobility and Signaling of a Prototypical G Protein-Coupled Receptor in Living Cells

Horst Vogel, Joachim Piguet, Luc Veya

Lateral diffusion enables efficient interactions between membrane proteins leading to signal transmission across the plasma membrane. An open question is how the spatio-temporal distribution of cell surface receptors influences the transmembrane signaling ...

Superdomain Structure in Epitaxial Tetragonal PZT Thin Films Under Tensile Strain

Nava Setter, Ludwig Feigl

The a/c domain pattern of tetragonal PbZr0.10Ti0.90O3 thin films under tensile misfit strain is investigated by piezoresponse force microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results show a hierarchical ordering of the dense a/c domain structure into larger sup ...

Protein Domain Prediction and Alternative Splicing Histories : a Modular View

Yann Christinat

Modularity is at the core of bioinformatics. Here we focused on two different building blocks: protein domains and exons. While protein domains enable us to study the protein‚s functions, exons allow us to understand the evolution of the former. However, a ...

Acetylcholine Receptor Organization in Membrane Domains in Muscle Cells: EVIDENCE FOR RAPSYN-INDEPENDENT AND RAPSYN-DEPENDENT MECHANISMS

Horst Vogel, Rudolf Hovius, Jean-Manuel Segura, Joachim Piguet, Christoph Schreiter

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) in muscle fibers are densely packed in the postsynaptic region at the neuromuscular junction. Rapsyn plays a central role in directing and clustering nAChR during cellular differentiation and neuromuscular junction ...

Advanced Fluorescence Microscopy to Study Plasma Membrane Protein Dynamics

Joachim Piguet

Membrane protein dynamics is of great importance for living organisms. The precise localization of proteins composing a synapse on the membrane facing a nerve terminus is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system. In muscle fibers, the nicotin ...
