Statistical Mechanics Provides Novel Insights into Microtubule Stability and Mechanism of Shrinkage

Microtubules are nano-machines that grow and shrink stochastically, making use of the coupling between chemical kinetics and mechanics of its constituent protofilaments (PFs). We investigate the stability and shrinkage of microtubules taking into account inter-protofilament interactions and bending...
