  1. PHYSICS OF BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS – ph549 LECTURE 14 – Life in crowded environments

  2. Ideal vs. Real cells Rob Philips, Physical Biology of the Cell

  3. Protein Census in E. Coli

  4. Census in E. Coli

  5. Census in E. Coli

  6. The crowded Cytoskeleton Rob Philips, Physical Biology of the Cell

  7. The crowded Cytoskeleton

  8. Diffusion and FRAP Rob Philips, Physical Biology of the Cell

  9. Diffusion and FRAP

  10. Diffusion in membranes Rob Philips, Physical Biology of the Cell

  11. Diffusion in membranes

  12. Diffusion in crowded environments

  13. Order through disorder Rob Philips, Physical Biology of the Cell

  14. Depletion Interaction

  18. Two large spheres

  19. Two large spheres

  20. Helices through crowding

  21. Why don’t all large structures in the cell aggregate? • Electrostatic interactions • Dynamic structures (cytoskeleton/vesicles) • Active processes (energy spent in preventing aggregation) • Constrained motion (due to cytoskeleton/…)

  22. References and further reading  Physical Biology of the Cell – Rob Phillips et. al. Chapter 14  The depletion attraction: an underappreciated force driving cellular organization, Marenduzzo et. al. JCB, 175 , 681 (2006)
