Summary
Description |
English: MTOC motility in a gradient of immobilized motors and diffusible motor-complexes. 80 MTOCs (grey) were simulated in the 2D oocyte geometry with the outer cell boundary (outer blue circle) and motors which are immobilized at a density of Nmi=103 motors/oocyte (green dots) in a sigmoid gradient originating from the center of the chromatin region (inner blue circle). The diffusible minus-end directed motor-complexes with Nmc=104 motors/oocyte (purple dots) bind to 2 MTs and walk simultaneously on them, generating a clustering force on the MTOC asters. For both kinds of motors f0 = 7 pN. |
