  text: Nucleation processes are at the heart of a large number of phenomena, from
    cloud formation to protein crystallization. A recently emerging area where nucleation
    is highly relevant is the initiation of filamentous protein self-assembly, a process
    that has broad implications in many research areas ranging from medicine to nanotechnology.
    As such, spontaneous nucleation of protein fibrils has received much attention
    in recent years with many theoretical and experimental studies focusing on the
    underlying physical principles. In this paper we make a step forward in this direction
    and explore the early time behaviour of filamentous protein growth in the context
    of nucleation theory. We first provide an overview of the thermodynamics and kinetics
    of spontaneous nucleation of protein filaments in the presence of one relevant
    degree of freedom, namely the cluster size. In this case, we review how key kinetic
    observables, such as the reaction order of spontaneous nucleation, are directly
    related to the physical size of the critical nucleus. We then focus on the increasingly
    prominent case of filament nucleation that includes a conformational conversion
    of the nucleating building-block as an additional slow step in the nucleation
    process. Using computer simulations, we study the concentration dependence of
    the nucleation rate. We find that, under these circumstances, the reaction order
    of spontaneous nucleation with respect to the free monomer does no longer relate
    to the overall physical size of the nucleating aggregate but rather to the portion
    of the aggregate that actively participates in the conformational conversion.
    Our results thus provide a novel interpretation of the common kinetic descriptors
    of protein filament formation, including the reaction order of the nucleation
    step or the scaling exponent of lag times, and put into perspective current theoretical
    descriptions of protein aggregation.

  text: The interplay of membrane proteins is vital for many biological processes,
    such as cellular transport, cell division, and signal transduction between nerve
    cells. Theoretical considerations have led to the idea that the membrane itself
    mediates protein self-organization in these processes through minimization of
    membrane curvature energy. Here, we present a combined experimental and numerical
    study in which we quantify these interactions directly for the first time. In
    our experimental model system we control the deformation of a lipid membrane by
    adhering colloidal particles. Using confocal microscopy, we establish that these
    membrane deformations cause an attractive interaction force leading to reversible
    binding. The attraction extends over 2.5 times the particle diameter and has a
    strength of three times the thermal energy (−3.3 kBT). Coarse-grained Monte-Carlo
    simulations of the system are in excellent agreement with the experimental results
    and prove that the measured interaction is independent of length scale. Our combined
    experimental and numerical results reveal membrane curvature as a common physical
    origin for interactions between any membrane-deforming objects, from nanometre-sized
    proteins to micrometre-sized particles.

  text: The ability of biological molecules to replicate themselves is the foundation
    of life, requiring a complex cellular machinery. However, a range of aberrant
    processes involve the self-replication of pathological protein structures without
    any additional assistance. One example is the autocatalytic generation of pathological
    protein aggregates, including amyloid fibrils, involved in neurodegenerative disorders.
    Here, we use computer simulations to identify the necessary requirements for the
    self-replication of fibrillar assemblies of proteins. We establish that a key
    physical determinant for this process is the affinity of proteins for the surfaces
    of fibrils. We find that self-replication can take place only in a very narrow
    regime of inter-protein interactions, implying a high level of sensitivity to
    system parameters and experimental conditions. We then compare our theoretical
    predictions with kinetic and biosensor measurements of fibrils formed from the
    Aβ peptide associated with Alzheimer’s disease. Our results show a quantitative
    connection between the kinetics of self-replication and the surface coverage of
    fibrils by monomeric proteins. These findings reveal the fundamental physical
    requirements for the formation of supra-molecular structures able to replicate
    themselves, and shed light on mechanisms in play in the proliferation of protein
    aggregates in nature.

  text: Using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, it has been recently
    demonstrated that water molecules align in response to an imposed temperature
    gradient, resulting in an effective electric field. Here, we investigate how thermally
    induced fields depend on the underlying treatment of long-ranged interactions.
    For the short-ranged Wolf method and Ewald summation, we find the peak strength
    of the field to range between 2 × 107 and 5 × 107 V/m for a temperature gradient
    of 5.2 K/Å. Our value for the Wolf method is therefore an order of magnitude lower
    than the literature value [J. A. Armstrong and F. Bresme, J. Chem. Phys. 139,
    014504 (2013); J. Armstrong et al., J. Chem. Phys. 143, 036101 (2015)]. We show
    that this discrepancy can be traced back to the use of an incorrect kernel in
    the calculation of the electrostatic field. More seriously, we find that the Wolf
    method fails to predict correct molecular orientations, resulting in dipole densities
    with opposite sign to those computed using Ewald summation. By considering two
    different multipole expansions, we show that, for inhomogeneous polarisations,
    the quadrupole contribution can be significant and even outweigh the dipole contribution
    to the field. Finally, we propose a more accurate way of calculating the electrostatic
    potential and the field. In particular, we show that averaging the microscopic
    field analytically to obtain the macroscopic Maxwell field reduces the error bars
    by up to an order of magnitude. As a consequence, the simulation times required
    to reach a given statistical accuracy decrease by up to two orders of magnitude.

  text: We study phase behaviour of lipid-bilayer vesicles functionalised by ligand–receptor
    complexes made of synthetic DNA by introducing a modelling framework and a dedicated
    experimental platform. In particular, we perform Monte Carlo simulations that
    combine a coarse grained description of the lipid bilayer with state of art analytical
    models for multivalent ligand–receptor interactions. Using density of state calculations,
    we derive the partition function in pairs of vesicles and compute the number of
    ligand–receptor bonds as a function of temperature. Numerical results are compared
    to microscopy and fluorimetry experiments on large unilamellar vesicles decorated
    by DNA linkers carrying complementary overhangs. We find that vesicle aggregation
    is suppressed when the total number of linkers falls below a threshold value.
    Within the model proposed here, this is due to the higher configurational costs
    required to form inter-vesicle bridges as compared to intra-vesicle loops, which
    are in turn related to membrane deformability. Our findings and our numerical/experimental
    methodologies are applicable to the rational design of liposomes used as functional
    materials and drug delivery applications, as well as to study inter-membrane interactions
    in living systems, such as cell adhesion.

  text: Far-field super-resolution fluorescence microscopy discerns fluorophores residing
    closer than the diffraction barrier by briefly transferring them in different
    (typically ON and OFF) states before detection. In coordinate-targeted super-resolution
    variants, such as stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy, this state
    difference is created by the intensity minima and maxima of an optical pattern,
    causing all fluorophores to assume the off state, for instance, except at the
    minima. Although strong spatial confinement of the on state enables high resolution,
    it also subjects the fluorophores to excess intensities and state cycles at the
    maxima. Here, we address these issues by driving the fluorophores into a second
    off state that is inert to the excess light. By using reversibly switchable fluorescent
    proteins as labels, our approach reduces bleaching and enhances resolution and
    contrast in live-cell STED microscopy. Using two or more transitions to off states
    is a useful strategy for augmenting the power of coordinate-targeted super-resolution
    microscopy.

  text: A range of bright and photostable rhodamines and carbopyronines with absorption
    maxima in the range of λ=500-630 nm were prepared, and enabled the specific labeling
    of cytoskeletal filaments using HaloTag technology followed by staining with 1
    μm solutions of the dye-ligand conjugates. The synthesis, photophysical parameters,
    fluorogenic behavior, and structure-property relationships of the new dyes are
    discussed. Light microscopy with stimulated emission depletion (STED) provided
    one- and two-color images of living cells with an optical resolution of 40-60
    nm.

  text: Superresolution fluorescence microscopy of multiple fluorophores still requires
    development. Here we present simultaneous three-colour stimulated emission depletion
    (STED) nanoscopy relying on a single STED beam at 620 nm. Toggling the STED beam
    between two or more power levels (&quot;multilevelSTEDv) optimizes resolution
    and contrast in all colour channels, which are intrinsically co-aligned and well
    separated. Three-colour recording is demonstrated by imaging the nanoscale cytoskeletal
    organization in cultured hippocampal neurons. The down to ∼35 nm resolution identified
    periodic actin/betaII spectrin lattices along dendrites and spines; however, at
    presynaptic and postsynaptic sites, these patterns were found to be absent. Both
    our multicolour scheme and the 620 nm STED line should be attractive for routine
    STED microscopy applications.

  text: 'This review accompanies a 2016 SFN mini-symposium presenting examples of
    current studies that address a central question: How do neural stem cells (NSCs)
    divide in different ways to produce heterogeneous daughter types at the right
    time and in proper numbers to build a cerebral cortex with the appropriate size
    and structure? We will focus on four aspects of corticogenesis: cytokinesis events
    that follow apical mitoses of NSCs; coordinating abscission with delamination
    from the apical membrane; timing of neurogenesis and its indirect regulation through
    emergence of intermediate progenitors; and capacity of single NSCs to generate
    the correct number and laminar fate of cortical neurons. Defects in these mechanisms
    can cause microcephaly and other brain malformations, and understanding them is
    critical to designing diagnostic tools and preventive and corrective therapies.'

  text: 'Balanced knockout tournaments are ubiquitous in sports competitions and are
    also used in decisionmaking and elections. The traditional computational question,
    that asks to compute a draw (optimal draw) that maximizes the winning probability
    for a distinguished player, has received a lot of attention. Previous works consider
    the problem where the pairwise winning probabilities are known precisely, while
    we study how robust is the winning probability with respect to small errors in
    the pairwise winning probabilities. First, we present several illuminating examples
    to establish: (a) there exist deterministic tournaments (where the pairwise winning
    probabilities are 0 or 1) where one optimal draw is much more robust than the
    other; and (b) in general, there exist tournaments with slightly suboptimal draws
    that are more robust than all the optimal draws. The above examples motivate the
    study of the computational problem of robust draws that guarantee a specified
    winning probability. Second, we present a polynomial-time algorithm for approximating
    the robustness of a draw for sufficiently small errors in pairwise winning probabilities,
    and obtain that the stated computational problem is NP-complete. We also show
    that two natural cases of deterministic tournaments where the optimal draw could
    be computed in polynomial time also admit polynomial-time algorithms to compute
    robust optimal draws.'

  text: Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are a group of genetic disorders often overlapping
    with other neurological conditions. We previously described abnormalities in the
    branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolic pathway as a cause of ASD. Here, we
    show that the solute carrier transporter 7a5 (SLC7A5), a large neutral amino acid
    transporter localized at the blood brain barrier (BBB), has an essential role
    in maintaining normal levels of brain BCAAs. In mice, deletion of Slc7a5 from
    the endothelial cells of the BBB leads to atypical brain amino acid profile, abnormal
    mRNA translation, and severe neurological abnormalities. Furthermore, we identified
    several patients with autistic traits and motor delay carrying deleterious homozygous
    mutations in the SLC7A5 gene. Finally, we demonstrate that BCAA intracerebroventricular
    administration ameliorates abnormal behaviors in adult mutant mice. Our data elucidate
    a neurological syndrome defined by SLC7A5 mutations and support an essential role
    for the BCAA in human brain function.

  text: "We present a deterministic incremental algorithm for exactly maintaining
    the size of a minimum cut with ~O(1) amortized time per edge insertion and O(1)
    query time. This result partially answers an open question posed by Thorup [Combinatorica
    2007]. It also stays in sharp contrast to a polynomial conditional lower-bound
    for the fully-dynamic weighted minimum cut problem. Our algorithm is obtained
    by combining a recent sparsification technique of Kawarabayashi and Thorup [STOC
    2015] and an exact incremental algorithm of Henzinger [J. of Algorithm 1997].\r\n\r\nWe
    also study space-efficient incremental algorithms for the minimum cut problem.
    Concretely, we show that there exists an O(n log n/epsilon^2) space Monte-Carlo
    algorithm that can process a stream of edge insertions starting from an empty
    graph, and with high probability, the algorithm maintains a (1+epsilon)-approximation
    to the minimum cut. The algorithm has ~O(1) amortized update-time and constant
    query-time."

  text: "During the last 10 years it has become popular to study dynamic graph problems
    in a emergency planning or sensitivity setting: Instead of considering the general
    fully dynamic problem, we only have to process a single batch update of size d;
    after the update we have to answer queries.\r\n\r\nIn this paper, we consider
    the dynamic subgraph connectivity problem with sensitivity d: We are given a graph
    of which some vertices are activated and some are deactivated. After that we get
    a single update in which the states of up to $d$ vertices are changed. Then we
    get a sequence of connectivity queries in the subgraph of activated vertices.\r\n\r\nWe
    present the first fully dynamic algorithm for this problem which has an update
    and query time only slightly worse than the best decremental algorithm. In addition,
    we present the first incremental algorithm which is tight with respect to the
    best known conditional lower bound; moreover, the algorithm is simple and we believe
    it is implementable and efficient in practice."

  text: "Given a graph where vertices are partitioned into k terminals and non-terminals,
    the goal is to compress the graph (i.e., reduce the number of non-terminals) using
    minor operations while preserving terminal distances approximately. The distortion
    of a compressed graph is the maximum multiplicative blow-up of distances between
    all pairs of terminals. We study the trade-off between the number of non-terminals
    and the distortion. This problem generalizes the Steiner Point Removal (SPR) problem,
    in which all non-terminals must be removed.\r\n\r\nWe introduce a novel black-box
    reduction to convert any lower bound on distortion for the SPR problem into a
    super-linear lower bound on the number of non-terminals, with the same distortion,
    for our problem. This allows us to show that there exist graphs such that every
    minor with distortion less than 2 / 2.5 / 3 must have Omega(k^2) / Omega(k^{5/4})
    / Omega(k^{6/5}) non-terminals, plus more trade-offs in between. The black-box
    reduction has an interesting consequence: if the tight lower bound on distortion
    for the SPR problem is super-constant, then allowing any O(k) non-terminals will
    not help improving the lower bound to a constant.\r\n\r\nWe also build on the
    existing results on spanners, distance oracles and connected 0-extensions to show
    a number of upper bounds for general graphs, planar graphs, graphs that exclude
    a fixed minor and bounded treewidth graphs. Among others, we show that any graph
    admits a minor with O(log k) distortion and O(k^2) non-terminals, and any planar
    graph admits a minor with\r\n1 + epsilon distortion and ~O((k/epsilon)^2) non-terminals."

  text: Across multicellular organisms, the costs of reproduction and self-maintenance
    result in a life history trade-off between fecundity and longevity. Queens of
    perennial social Hymenoptera are both highly fertile and long-lived, and thus,
    this fundamental trade-off is lacking. Whether social insect males similarly evade
    the fecundity/longevity trade-off remains largely unstudied. Wingless males of
    the ant genus Cardiocondyla stay in their natal colonies throughout their relatively
    long lives and mate with multiple female sexuals. Here, we show that Cardiocondyla
    obscurior males that were allowed to mate with large numbers of female sexuals
    had a shortened life span compared to males that mated at a low frequency or virgin
    males. Although frequent mating negatively affects longevity, males clearly benefit
    from a “live fast, die young strategy” by inseminating as many female sexuals
    as possible at a cost to their own survival.

  text: The developmental programme of the pistil is under the control of both auxin
    and cytokinin. Crosstalk between these factors converges on regulation of the
    auxin carrier PIN-FORMED 1 (PIN1). Here, we show that in the triple transcription
    factor mutant cytokinin response factor 2 (crf2) crf3 crf6 both pistil length
    and ovule number were reduced. PIN1 expression was also lower in the triple mutant
    and the phenotypes could not be rescued by exogenous cytokinin application. pin1
    complementation studies using genomic PIN1 constructs showed that the pistil phenotypes
    were only rescued when the PCRE1 domain, to which CRFs bind, was present. Without
    this domain, pin mutants resemble the crf2 crf3 crf6 triple mutant, indicating
    the pivotal role of CRFs in auxin-cytokinin crosstalk.

  text: The human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae is decorated with a special class
    of surface-proteins known as choline-binding proteins (CBPs) attached to phosphorylcholine
    (PCho) moieties from cell-wall teichoic acids. By a combination of X-ray crystallography,
    NMR, molecular dynamics techniques and in vivo virulence and phagocytosis studies,
    we provide structural information of choline-binding protein L (CbpL) and demonstrate
    its impact on pneumococcal pathogenesis and immune evasion. CbpL is a very elongated
    three-module protein composed of (i) an Excalibur Ca 2+ -binding domain -reported
    in this work for the very first time-, (ii) an unprecedented anchorage module
    showing alternate disposition of canonical and non-canonical choline-binding sites
    that allows vine-like binding of fully-PCho-substituted teichoic acids (with two
    choline moieties per unit), and (iii) a Ltp-Lipoprotein domain. Our structural
    and infection assays indicate an important role of the whole multimodular protein
    allowing both to locate CbpL at specific places on the cell wall and to interact
    with host components in order to facilitate pneumococcal lung infection and transmigration
    from nasopharynx to the lungs and blood. CbpL implication in both resistance against
    killing by phagocytes and pneumococcal pathogenesis further postulate this surface-protein
    as relevant among the pathogenic arsenal of the pneumococcus.

  text: "We present a deterministic (1+o(1))-approximation O(n1/2+o(1)+D1+o(1))-time
    algorithm for solving the single-source shortest paths problem on distributed
    weighted networks (the CONGEST model); here n is the number of nodes in the network
    and D is its (hop) diameter. This is the first non-trivial deterministic algorithm
    for this problem. It also improves (i) the running time of the randomized (1+o(1))-approximation
    Õ(n1/2D1/4+D)-time algorithm of Nanongkai [STOC 2014] by a factor of as large
    as n1/8, and (ii) the O(є−1logє−1)-approximation factor of Lenzen and Patt-Shamir’s
    Õ(n1/2+є+D)-time algorithm [STOC 2013] within the same running time. Our running
    time matches the known time lower bound of Ω(n1/2/logn + D) [Das Sarma et al.
    STOC 2011] modulo some lower-order terms, thus essentially settling the status
    of this problem which was raised at least a decade ago [Elkin SIGACT News 2004].
    It also implies a (2+o(1))-approximation O(n1/2+o(1)+D1+o(1))-time algorithm for
    approximating a network’s weighted diameter which almost matches the lower bound
    by Holzer et al. [PODC 2012].\r\n\r\nIn achieving this result, we develop two
    techniques which might be of independent interest and useful in other settings:
    (i) a deterministic process that replaces the “hitting set argument” commonly
    used for shortest paths computation in various settings, and (ii) a simple, deterministic,
    construction of an (no(1), o(1))-hop set of size O(n1+o(1)). We combine these
    techniques with many distributed algorithmic techniques, some of which from problems
    that are not directly related to shortest paths, e.g. ruling sets [Goldberg et
    al. STOC 1987], source detection [Lenzen, Peleg PODC 2013], and partial distance
    estimation [Lenzen, Patt-Shamir PODC 2015]. Our hop set construction also leads
    to single-source shortest paths algorithms in two other settings: (i) a (1+o(1))-approximation
    O(no(1))-time algorithm on congested cliques, and (ii) a (1+o(1))-approximation
    O(no(1)logW)-pass O(n1+o(1)logW)-space streaming algorithm, when edge weights
    are in {1, 2, …, W}. The first result answers an open problem in [Nanongkai, STOC
    2014]. The second result partially answers an open problem raised by McGregor
    in 2006 [<pre>sublinear.info</pre>, Problem 14]."

  text: We present two deterministic dynamic algorithms for the maximum matching problem.
    (1) An algorithm that maintains a (2+є)-approximate maximum matching in general
    graphs with O(poly(logn, 1/є)) update time. (2) An algorithm that maintains an
    αK approximation of the value of the maximum matching with O(n2/K) update time
    in bipartite graphs, for every sufficiently large constant positive integer K.
    Here, 1≤ αK < 2 is a constant determined by the value of K. Result (1) is the
    first deterministic algorithm that can maintain an o(logn)-approximate maximum
    matching with polylogarithmic update time, improving the seminal result of Onak
    et al. [STOC 2010]. Its approximation guarantee almost matches the guarantee of
    the best randomized polylogarithmic update time algorithm [Baswana et al. FOCS
    2011]. Result (2) achieves a better-than-two approximation with arbitrarily small
    polynomial update time on bipartite graphs. Previously the best update time for
    this problem was O(m1/4) [Bernstein et al. ICALP 2015], where m is the current
    number of edges in the graph.

  text: "We consider a population dynamics model coupling cell growth to a diffusion
    in the space of metabolic phenotypes as it can be obtained from realistic constraints-based
    modelling. \r\nIn the asymptotic regime of slow\r\ndiffusion, that coincides with
    the relevant experimental range, the resulting\r\nnon-linear Fokker–Planck equation
    is solved for the steady state in the WKB\r\napproximation that maps it into the
    ground state of a quantum particle in an\r\nAiry potential plus a centrifugal
    term. We retrieve scaling laws for growth rate\r\nfluctuations and time response
    with respect to the distance from the maximum\r\ngrowth rate suggesting that suboptimal
    populations can have a faster response\r\nto perturbations."
