Dissipative Self-Assembly of Patchy Particles under Nonequilibrium Drive: A Computational Study by Shubhadeep Nag (18888287)

“…Utilizing extensive Monte Carlo (MC) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations, we provide insight into the effects of external forces that mirror natural and chemical processes on the assembly rates and the stability of the resulting assemblies comprising 8, 10, and 13 patchy particles. Implemented by a favorable bond-promoting drive in MC or a pulsed square wave potential in MD, our simulations reveal the role these external drives play in accelerating assembly kinetics and enhancing structural stability, evidenced by a decrease in the time to first assembly and an increase in the duration the system remains in an assembled state. …”

Illustration depicting how membrane proteins might incorporate into LCP in a PLI experiment. by Ellen Wallace (207446)

“…According to this model, productive incorporation from the micellar phase occurs if k₁>k₂ and interfacial concentration occurs only if diffusion is slow as compared to the incorporation step (k₁>k₃).Detergents have been shown to dramatically decrease the curvature of monoolein-based LCP <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0024488#pone.0024488-Briggs1" target="_blank">[30]</a>, likely resulting in altered mesophase arragements of protruding bilayers consisting of monoolein (green and gray) and detergent molecules (blue and gray; in our case the detergent is LDAO) that serve as portals for membrane protein incorporation. …”

Metabolic Profiling of Hypoxic Cells Revealed a Catabolic Signature Required for Cell Survival by Christian Frezza (206929)

“…The adaptation to hypoxia requires both biochemical and genetic responses that culminate in a metabolic rearrangement to counter-balance the decrease in energy supply from mitochondrial respiration. …”

Role of Mechanical Cues in Cell Differentiation and Proliferation: A 3D Numerical Model by Seyed Jamaleddin Mousavi (714603)

“…Moreover cell differentiation and proliferation accelerate with increasing substrate stiffness due to the decrease in the cell maturation time. Thus, the model provides insights to explain the hypothesis that substrate stiffness plays a key role in regulating cell fate during mechanotaxis.…”
