Microtubules : The neuronic system of the neurons ?
In this talk we review recent work on integrable models for Microtubule (MT) networks, subneural paracrystalline cytosceletal structures, which seem to play a fundamental role in the neurons. We cast here the complicated MT dynamics in the form of a 1+1-dimensional non-critical string theory, which can be formulated in terms of (dual) Dirichlet branes, according to modern perspectives. We sugge...
متن کاملProgress in Biophysics & Molecular Biology
Progress in Biophysics & Molecular Biology covers the ground between the physical and biological sciences. It indicates to the physicist the great variety of unsolved problems awaiting attention in the biological sciences. The biologist and biochemist will find that this journal presents new and stimulating ideas on structural and functional problems of the living organism. This journal will be...

Popeye domain containing (Popdc) proteins are a unique family, which combine several different properties and functions in a surprisingly complex fashion. They are expressed in multiple tissues and cell types, present in several subcellular compartments, interact with different classes of proteins, and are associated with a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Moreover, Po...

Biophysics at the systems level, as distinct from molecular biophysics, acquired its most famous paradigm in the work of Hodgkin and Huxley, who integrated their equations for the nerve impulse in 1952. Their approach has since been extended to other organs of the body, notably including the heart. The modern field of computational biology has expanded rapidly during the first decade of the twe...

With the recent successful completion of the Human Genome Project and related attempts to determine whole genomes it has become obvious that the obtained wealth of data needs to be matched by information on the structure and function of the huge number of proteins encoded in the various genomes (“proteomics”). As proteins are only functional if they assume specific shapes, it is important to ex...
