Integration Of The Biochemical And Mechanical Networks Of Cell Division
Rebuilding LifeβS Most Important Mechanisma Cell First Goes Through A Radical Transformation Before It Splits. Cell Division Is One Of The Most Fundamental Processes In Life. The Erc-Funded Biomecanet Project Will Study This Mechanism That Involves Out-Of-Equilibrium Chemistry Of Many Components. It Will Rebuild The Mechanism, Reassembling The Engine Of Division. Specifically, The ProjectβS Goal Is To Unravel This Interplay By Re-Engineering It In Vitro And By Modelling It In Silico. It Will Analyse The Emergence Of Complex Life-Like Biological Functions By Combining These Reconstituted Networks, Integrating Temporal Control And Mechanical Forces. This Will Elevate The Scale And Scope Of In Vitro Reconstitutions.
