Abstract: Microtubules (MTs) are the most rigid elements of the cytoskeleton with in vitro persistence lengths (Lp) in the range of 1-6 mm. In cellular environments, however, MTs often appear strongly curved. This has been attributed to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2426427122
Abstract: Significance Influenza hemagglutinin (HA) is responsible for two crucial steps in the viral life cycle—receptor binding on the host cell and membrane fusion. Coordination of several HAs is required to carry out efficient cellular uptake… read more here.
