The cytoskeleton is a dynamic network of proteins, including actin, microtubules, and their
associated motor proteins, that enables essential cellular processes such as motility, division, …

The cytoskeleton, a complex network of protein filaments and crosslinking proteins, dictates
diverse cellular processes ranging from division to cargo transport. Yet, the role the …

The cytoskeleton is a model active matter system that controls processes as diverse as cell
motility and mechanosensing. While both active actomyosin dynamics and actin–microtubule …

Cytoskeletal crowding plays a key role in the diffusion of DNA molecules through the cell,
acting as a barrier to effective intracellular transport and conformational stability required for …

Anomalous diffusion in crowded and complex environments is widely studied due to its
importance in intracellular transport, fluid rheology and materials engineering. Specifically, …

Polymer topology, which plays a principal role in the rheology of polymeric fluids, and non‐equilibrium
materials, which exhibit time‐varying rheological properties, are topics of intense …

Cells can crawl, self-heal, and tune their stiffness due to their remarkably dynamic cytoskeleton.
As such, reconstituting networks of cytoskeletal biopolymers may lead to a host of active …

The cytoskeleton–a composite network of biopolymers, molecular motors, and associated
binding proteins–is a paradigmatic example of active matter. Particle transport through the …

The cytoskeleton of biological cells relies on a diverse population of motors, filaments, and
binding proteins acting in concert to enable non-equilibrium processes ranging from mitosis …

The composite cytoskeleton, comprising interacting networks of semiflexible actin filaments
and rigid microtubules, restructures and generates forces using motor proteins such as …
