Anionic Lipids: A Pipeline Connecting Key Players of Plant Cell Division
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 How cells position their division plane is a critical component of cell division. Indeed, it defines whether the two daughter cells divide symmetrically (with equal volumes) or not, and as such is critical for cell differentiation and lineage ...

The Electromechanical Behavior of a Micro-Ring Driven by Traveling Electrostatic Force
Sensors, 2012 There is no literature mentioning the electromechanical behavior of micro structures driven by traveling electrostatic forces. This article is thus the first to present the dynamics and stabilities of a micro-ring subjected to a traveling electrostatic ...

Interaction and Polarization Energy Relationships in σ-Hole and π-Hole Bonding
Crystals, 2020 We demonstrate that a wide range of σ- and π-hole interaction energies can be related to (a) the electrostatic potentials and electric fields of the σ- and π-hole molecules at the approximate positions of the negative sites and (b ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
