In the Jensen Lab we simply love to look at things, and we believe that movies are often the best way to showcase the 3D nature of our data. Here are all of the movies created by our lab over the years. If your browser is having trouble loading the video gallery below click here to visit our Youtube channel.
Simulations of the actomyosin ring
Most eukaryotic cells divide using a contractile actomyosin ring, but its structure and mechanism remain unclear. Here we describe how we used 3D coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to explore various mechanistic hypotheses for the actomyosin ring of fission yeast.
