Journal ArticleDOI
Germline P Granules Are Liquid Droplets That Localize by Controlled Dissolution/Condensation
Clifford P. Brangwynne,Christian R. Eckmann,David S. Courson,Agata Rybarska,Carsten Hoege,Jöbin Gharakhani,Jöbin Gharakhani,Frank Jülicher,Frank Jülicher,Anthony A. Hyman,Anthony A. Hyman +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that P granules exhibit liquid-like behaviors, including fusion, dripping, and wetting, which is used to estimate their viscosity and surface tension, and reflects a classic phase transition, in which polarity proteins vary the condensation point across the cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid-liquid phase separation in biology.
TL;DR: The basic physical concepts necessary to understand the consequences of liquid-like states for biological functions are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling molecular motors
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present general considerations and simple models for the operation of isothermal motors at small scales, in asymmetric environments, inspired by recent observations on the behavior of molecular motors in the biological realm, where chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Influence of Cell Mechanics, Cell-Cell Interactions, and Proliferation on Epithelial Packing
TL;DR: A vertex model is used for the epithelial junctional network in which cell packing geometries correspond to stable and stationary network configurations and accounts qualitatively and quantitatively for the observed packing geometry in the wing disc and its response to perturbation by laser ablation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell Flow Reorients the Axis of Planar Polarity in the Wing Epithelium of Drosophila
Benoît Aigouy,Reza Farhadifar,Douglas B. Staple,Andreas Sagner,Jens-Christian Röper,Frank Jülicher,Suzanne Eaton +6 more
TL;DR: Mutation of the atypical Cadherin Dachsous perturbs the global polarity pattern by altering epithelial dynamics and utilizes the cellular movements that sculpt tissues to align planar polarity with tissue shape.
