Journal ArticleDOI

Differential Dynamic Microscopy: Probing Wave Vector Dependent Dynamics with a Microscope

TL;DR: The use of an ordinary white-light microscope for the study of the q-dependent dynamics of colloidal dispersions is demonstrated and the results are found to be in good agreement with the theoretically expected values for Brownian motion in a viscous medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endocytic reawakening of motility in jammed epithelia

TL;DR: It is shown that RAB5A, a key endocytic protein, is sufficient to induce large-scale, coordinated motility over tens of cells and ballistic motion in otherwise kinetically-arrested monolayers, which enable collectives to migrate under physical constraints and may be exploited by tumors for interstitial dissemination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional transcription promoters at DNA double-strand breaks mediate RNA-driven phase separation of damage response factors

TL;DR: It is proposed that the assembly of DSB-induced transcriptional promoters drives RNA synthesis, which stimulates phase separation of DDR factors in the shape of foci, and that dilncRNAs drive molecular crowding of DDR proteins into foci that exhibit liquid–liquid phase- separation condensate properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-dimensional x-ray beam phase sensing.

TL;DR: A new method to analyze quantitatively the wave front of a partially coherent x-ray beam is presented, based on the use of two-dimensional speckle patterns combined with digital image correlation algorithms and offers a pixel size resolution, a high accuracy, and a reduced sensitivity to mechanical vibrations thanks to a very simple setup.
