text: "Self-replication of amyloid fibrils via secondary nucleation is an intriguing
physicochemical phenomenon in which existing fibrils catalyze the formation of
their own copies. The molecular events behind this fibril surface-mediated process
remain largely inaccessible to current structural and imaging techniques. Using
statistical mechanics, computer modeling, and chemical kinetics, we show that
the catalytic structure of the fibril surface can be inferred from the aggregation
behavior in the presence and absence of a fibril-binding inhibitor. We apply our
approach to the case of Alzheimer’s A\r\n amyloid fibrils formed in the presence
of proSP-C Brichos inhibitors. We find that self-replication of A\r\n fibrils
occurs on small catalytic sites on the fibril surface, which are far apart from
each other, and each of which can be covered by a single Brichos inhibitor."

text: 'Many cell functions require a concerted effort from multiple membrane proteins,
for example, for signaling, cell division, and endocytosis. One contribution to
their successful self-organization stems from the membrane deformations that these
proteins induce. While the pairwise interaction potential of two membrane-deforming
spheres has recently been measured, membrane-deformation-induced interactions
have been predicted to be nonadditive, and hence their collective behavior cannot
be deduced from this measurement. We here employ a colloidal model system consisting
of adhesive spheres and giant unilamellar vesicles to test these predictions by
measuring the interaction potential of the simplest case of three membrane-deforming,
spherical particles. We quantify their interactions and arrangements and, for
the first time, experimentally confirm and quantify the nonadditive nature of
membrane-deformation-induced interactions. We furthermore conclude that there
exist two favorable configurations on the membrane: (1) a linear and (2) a triangular
arrangement of the three spheres. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we corroborate
the experimentally observed energy minima and identify a lowering of the membrane
deformation as the cause for the observed configurations. The high symmetry of
the preferred arrangements for three particles suggests that arrangements of many
membrane-deforming objects might follow simple rules.'

text: 'Endocytosis is a key cellular process involved in the uptake of nutrients,
pathogens, or the therapy of diseases. Most studies have focused on spherical
objects, whereas biologically relevant shapes can be highly anisotropic. In this
letter, we use an experimental model system based on Giant Unilamellar Vesicles
(GUVs) and dumbbell-shaped colloidal particles to mimic and investigate the first
stage of the passive endocytic process: engulfment of an anisotropic object by
the membrane. Our model has specific ligand–receptor interactions realized by
mobile receptors on the vesicles and immobile ligands on the particles. Through
a series of experiments, theory, and molecular dynamics simulations, we quantify
the wrapping process of anisotropic dumbbells by GUVs and identify distinct stages
of the wrapping pathway. We find that the strong curvature variation in the neck
of the dumbbell as well as membrane tension are crucial in determining both the
speed of wrapping and the final states.'

text: When in equilibrium, thermal forces agitate molecules, which then diffuse,
collide and bind to form materials. However, the space of accessible structures
in which micron-scale particles can be organized by thermal forces is limited,
owing to the slow dynamics and metastable states. Active agents in a passive fluid
generate forces and flows, forming a bath with active fluctuations. Two unanswered
questions are whether those active agents can drive the assembly of passive components
into unconventional states and which material properties they will exhibit. Here
we show that passive, sticky beads immersed in a bath of swimming Escherichia
coli bacteria aggregate into unconventional clusters and gels that are controlled
by the activity of the bath. We observe a slow but persistent rotation of the
aggregates that originates in the chirality of the E. coli flagella and directs
aggregation into structures that are not accessible thermally. We elucidate the
aggregation mechanism with a numerical model of spinning, sticky beads and reproduce
quantitatively the experimental results. We show that internal activity controls
the phase diagram and the structure of the aggregates. Overall, our results highlight
the promising role of active baths in designing the structural and mechanical
properties of materials with unconventional phases.

text: Self-organisation is the spontaneous emergence of spatio-temporal structures
and patterns from the interaction of smaller individual units. Examples are found
across many scales in very different systems and scientific disciplines, from
physics, materials science and robotics to biology, geophysics and astronomy.
Recent research has highlighted how self-organisation can be both mediated and
controlled by confinement. Confinement is an action over a system that limits
its units’ translational and rotational degrees of freedom, thus also influencing
the system's phase space probability density; it can function as either a catalyst
or inhibitor of self-organisation. Confinement can then become a means to actively
steer the emergence or suppression of collective phenomena in space and time.
Here, to provide a common framework and perspective for future research, we examine
the role of confinement in the self-organisation of soft-matter systems and identify
overarching scientific challenges that need to be addressed to harness its full
scientific and technological potential in soft matter and related fields. By drawing
analogies with other disciplines, this framework will accelerate a common deeper
understanding of self-organisation and trigger the development of innovative strategies
to steer it using confinement, with impact on, e.g., the design of smarter materials,
tissue engineering for biomedicine and in guiding active matter.

text: ESCRT-III family proteins form composite polymers that deform and cut membrane
tubes in the context of a wide range of cell biological processes across the tree
of life. In reconstituted systems, sequential changes in the composition of ESCRT-III
polymers induced by the AAA–adenosine triphosphatase Vps4 have been shown to remodel
membranes. However, it is not known how composite ESCRT-III polymers are organized
and remodeled in space and time in a cellular context. Taking advantage of the
relative simplicity of the ESCRT-III–dependent division system in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius,
one of the closest experimentally tractable prokaryotic relatives of eukaryotes,
we use super-resolution microscopy, electron microscopy, and computational modeling
to show how CdvB/CdvB1/CdvB2 proteins form a precisely patterned composite ESCRT-III
division ring, which undergoes stepwise Vps4-dependent disassembly and contracts
to cut cells into two. These observations lead us to suggest sequential changes
in a patterned composite polymer as a general mechanism of ESCRT-III–dependent
membrane remodeling.

text: By varying the concentration of molecules in the cytoplasm or on the membrane,
cells can induce the formation of condensates and liquid droplets, similar to
phase separation. Their thermodynamics, much studied, depends on the mutual interactions
between microscopic constituents. Here, we focus on the kinetics and size control
of 2D clusters, forming on membranes. Using molecular dynamics of patchy colloids,
we model a system of two species of proteins, giving origin to specific heterotypic
bonds. We find that concentrations, together with valence and bond strength, control
both the size and the growth time rate of the clusters. In particular, if one
species is in large excess, it gradually saturates the binding sites of the other
species; the system then becomes kinetically arrested and cluster coarsening slows
down or stops, thus yielding effective size selection. This phenomenology is observed
both in solid and fluid clusters, which feature additional generic homotypic interactions
and are reminiscent of the ones observed on biological membranes.

text: Primary nucleation is the fundamental event that initiates the conversion
of proteins from their normal physiological forms into pathological amyloid aggregates
associated with the onset and development of disorders including systemic amyloidosis,
as well as the neurodegenerative conditions Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.
It has become apparent that the presence of surfaces can dramatically modulate
nucleation. However, the underlying physicochemical parameters governing this
process have been challenging to elucidate, with interfaces in some cases having
been found to accelerate aggregation, while in others they can inhibit the kinetics
of this process. Here we show through kinetic analysis that for three different
fibril-forming proteins, interfaces affect the aggregation reaction mainly through
modulating the primary nucleation step. Moreover, we show through direct measurements
of the Gibbs free energy of adsorption, combined with theory and coarse-grained
computer simulations, that overall nucleation rates are suppressed at high and
at low surface interaction strengths but significantly enhanced at intermediate
strengths, and we verify these regimes experimentally. Taken together, these results
provide a quantitative description of the fundamental process which triggers amyloid
formation and shed light on the key factors that control this process.

text: The sequential exchange of filament composition to increase filament curvature
was proposed as a mechanism for how some biological polymers deform and cut membranes.
The relationship between the filament composition and its mechanical effect is
lacking. We develop a kinetic model for the assembly of composite filaments that
includes protein–membrane adhesion, filament mechanics and membrane mechanics.
We identify the physical conditions for such a membrane remodeling and show this
mechanism of sequential polymer assembly lowers the energetic barrier for membrane
deformation.

text: ESCRT-III filaments are composite cytoskeletal polymers that can constrict
and cut cell membranes from the inside of the membrane neck. Membrane-bound ESCRT-III
filaments undergo a series of dramatic composition and geometry changes in the
presence of an ATP-consuming Vps4 enzyme, which causes stepwise changes in the
membrane morphology. We set out to understand the physical mechanisms involved
in translating the changes in ESCRT-III polymer composition into membrane deformation.
We have built a coarse-grained model in which ESCRT-III polymers of different
geometries and mechanical properties are allowed to copolymerise and bind to a
deformable membrane. By modelling ATP-driven stepwise depolymerisation of specific
polymers, we identify mechanical regimes in which changes in filament composition
trigger the associated membrane transition from a flat to a buckled state, and
then to a tubule state that eventually undergoes scission to release a small cargo-loaded
vesicle. We then characterise how the location and kinetics of polymer loss affects
the extent of membrane deformation and the efficiency of membrane neck scission.
Our results identify the near-minimal mechanical conditions for the operation
of shape-shifting composite polymers that sever membrane necks.
