Semiflexible Biopolymers in Bundled Arrangements

Semiflexible Biopolymers in Bundled Arrangements

Bundles and networks of semiflexible biopolymers are key elements in cells, lending them mechanical integrity while also enabling dynamic functions. Networks have been the subject of many studies, revealing a variety of fundamental characteristics often determined via bulk measurements. Although bun...
