Coarse-Grained Simulation of Mechanical Properties of Single Microtubules With Micrometer Length
Microtubules are one of the most important components in the cytoskeleton and play a vital role in maintaining the shape and function of cells. Because single microtubules are some micrometers long, it is difficult to simulate such a large system using an all-atom model. In this work, we use the new...
