Direct measurements of trafficking kinetics between organelles of the secretory pathway suggest that lipid-driven membrane domains laterally sort proteins during membrane traffic.
Escherichia coli exhibits sensitive chemotaxis to potassium, mediated by differential responses of Tar and Tsr chemoreceptors to intracellular pH changes induced by potassium concentration gradients.
External hydrodynamic forcing on each flagellum of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii reveals a leader-follower relation between the two flagella in the synchronous beating.
ElegansBot, a two-dimensional rigid body chain model, simulates various locomotion of C. elegans, including omega and delta turns, using Newtonian equations of motion.
Evidence of a relationship between substrate curvature, water evaporation and the building behavior of termites capable of mediating collective nest-building with no need for a building pheromone.
Microfluidic methods are used to quantitatively probe single yeast cells' response to either simultaneous or sequential stresses, revealing the dynamic interplay between two antagonistic inputs, osmotic stress and glucose starvation.
