Hydrodynamic and Polyelectrolyte Properties of Actin Filaments: Theory and Experiments
Actin filament’s polyelectrolyte and hydrodynamic properties, their interactions with the biological environment, and external force fields play an essential role in their biological activities in eukaryotic cellular processes. In this article, we introduce a unique approach that combines dynamics a...
