Europhysics News, 2020 Mechanics plays a key role in life, from simple tasks like providing protective shielding to highly complex ones such as cell division. To understand mechanical properties on the organism level, we need to zoom in to its constituent cells, then zoom back out to see how they collectively build tissues.

Mechanics rules cell biology [PDF]
BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2010 Cells in the musculoskeletal system are subjected to various mechanical forces in vivo. Years of research have shown that these mechanical forces, including tension and compression, greatly influence various cellular functions such as gene expression, cell proliferation and differentiation, and secretion of matrix proteins.

Systems biology and mechanics of growth [PDF]
WIREs Systems Biology and Medicine, 2015 In contrast to inert systems, living biological systems have the advantage to adapt to their environment through growth and evolution. This transfiguration is evident during embryonic development, when the predisposed need to grow allows form to follow function.

Towards molecular systems biology of gene transcription and regulation [PDF]
, 2010 Ten years after the determination of the RNA polymerase 11 structure, the basic mechanism of mRNA synthesis during gene transcription is known. In the future, the initiation and regulation of transcription must be studied with a combination of structural
