A model system exploring ATP synthase reveals that rotation, repulsion and flow can crystallize proteins. It may explain a biophysical mystery in mitochondrial membranes.
CCB’s mission is to develop modeling tools and theory for understanding biological processes and to create computational frameworks that will enable the analysis of the large, complex data sets being generated by new experimental technologies.

Publication Highlights
Sequence-structure-function relationships in the microbial protein universe
For the past half-century, structural biologists relied on the notion that similar protein sequences give rise to similar structures and…
bioRxivDeconstructing gastrulation at single-cell resolution
Gastrulation movements in all animal embryos start with regulated deformations of patterned epithelial sheets, which are driven by cell divisions,…
Current BiologyThermodynamically consistent coarse-graining of polar active fluids
We introduce a closure model for coarse-grained kinetic theories of polar active fluids. Based on a thermodynamically consistent, quasi-equilibrium approximation…
