Machine learning classification of trajectories from molecular dynamics simulations of chromosome segregation.

David Geisel; Peter Lenz

PLoS ONE, Vol. 17 No. 1 · 2022 · English · DOAJ Scopus

In contrast to the well characterized mitotic machinery in eukaryotes it seems as if there is no universal mechanism organizing chromosome segregation in all bacteria. Apparently, some bacteria even use combinations of different segregation mechanisms such as protein machines or rely on physical…

Chromosome Segregation in Bacillus subtilis Follows an Overall Pattern of Linear Movement and Is Highly Robust against Cell Cycle Perturbations

Nina El Najjar; David Geisel; Felix Schmidt et al.

mSphere, Vol. 5 No. 3 · 2020 · English · DOAJ Scopus

ABSTRACT Although several proteins have been identified that facilitate chromosome segregation in bacteria, no clear analogue of the mitotic machinery in eukaryotic cells has been identified. In order to investigate if recognizable patterns of segregation exist during the cell cycle, we tracked the…

Simple Ventilators for Emergency Use Based on Bag-Valve Pressing Systems: Lessons Learned and Future Steps

Enrique Castro-Camus; Jan Ornik; Cornelius Mach et al.

Applied Sciences, Vol. 10 No. 20 · 2020 · English · DOAJ Scopus

As part of a plethora of global efforts to minimize the negative effects of the SARS-CoV2 (COVID-19) pandemic, we developed two different mechanisms that, after further development, could potentially be of use in the future in order to increase the capacity of ventilators with low-cost devices…
