Patterning of the MinD cell division protein in cells of arbitrary shape can be predicted using a heuristic dispersion relation

Patterning of the MinD cell division protein in cells of arbitrary shape can be predicted using a heuristic dispersion relation

Many important cellular processes require the accurate positioning of subcellular structures. Underpinning many of these are protein systems that spontaneously generate spatiotemporal patterns. In some cases, these systems can be described by non-linear reaction-diffusion equations, however, a full...
