Fortunately, actin research has provided a vast pool of experimental studies, and several quantitative models that provide excellent characterizations of actin polymerization kinetics. To simulate filament scaffolding in a dendritic model, I developed a stochastic 3D model of actin dynamics based on parameters from previously established in steady-state (Bindschadler 2004, Yarmola 2008), monte carlo (Halavatyi 2008) and stochastic (Mogilner 2006) models. To my knowledge, simulating stochastic evolution of actin networks in 3D makes this model the first of its kind. | ||
