Dynamics and length distributions of microtubules with a multistep catastrophe mechanism

F. Schwietert, L. K. Heydenreich, J. Kierfeld

This study extends the Dogterom-Leibler model to analyze how a multistep catastrophe mechanism affects microtubule length distributions in bounded and unbounded growth regimes.

Strain stiffening of Ndc80 complexes attached to microtubule plus ends

F. Schwietert, V. A. Volkov, P. J. Huis in 't Veld, M. Dogterom, A. Musacchio, J. Kierfeld

The paper measures strain stiffening of Ndc80 complexes under tension from depolymerizing microtubules, showing it is robust to mutations and linked to structural features and thermal fluctuations.

Bistability and oscillations in cooperative microtubule and kinetochore dynamics in the mitotic spindle

F. Schwietert, J. Kierfeld

This paper models mitotic spindle dynamics to show bistability and oscillations arise from microtubule-kinetochore interactions and linker stiffness.
