Microrheology of microtubule solutions and actin-microtubule composite networks.
We perform local or microrheological measurements on microtubule solutions, as well as composite networks. The viscoelastic properties of microtubules as reported from two-point microrheology agree with the macroscopic measurement at high frequencies, but appear to show a discrepancy at low frequencies, at time scales on the order of a second. A composite of filamentous actin (F-actin) and micr...
متن کاملMicrotubule organization: A complex solution
Microtubule nucleation within cells is catalyzed by γ-tubulin ring complexes localized at specific microtubule-organizing centers. In this issue, Muroyama et al. (2016. J. Cell Biol. http://dx.doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201601099) reveal heterogeneity in the composition and function of these complexes, with wide implications for how cells organize their microtubule arrays.
متن کاملSonochemical degradation of azithromycin in aqueous solution
Background: The presence of pharmaceutical substances and their residual in water resources is an important environmental concern. Azithromycin, an antibiotic that is used for the treatment of infectious diseases, is a pollutant agent in the wastewater. The aim of this study was to investigate azithromycin degradation in aqueous solution through ultrasonic process in the presence of zinc oxide ...
متن کاملMicrorheology of highly crosslinked microtubule networks is dominated by force-induced crosslinker unbinding.
We determine the time- and force-dependent viscoelastic responses of reconstituted networks of microtubules that have been strongly crosslinked by biotin-streptavidin bonds. To measure the microscale viscoelasticity of such networks, we use a magnetic tweezers device to apply localized forces. At short time scales, the networks respond nonlinearly to applied force, with stiffening at small forc...
متن کاملAmino Acids in Aqueous Solution
In the previous chapter, the focus was mainly on the behavior of ions in solution. The effect of concentration, solvent, as well as pH have been investigated; furthermore, alkali metal ions as well as transition metal ions have been studied. In this chapter, the investigation will be extended from ions to molecules, more specifically toward the behavior of amino acids in solution. Amino acids a...
