Short Pyridine-Furan Springs Exhibit Bistable Dynamics of Duffing Oscillators.

ABSTRACT: The intensive development of nanodevices acting as two-state systems has motivated the search for nanoscale molecular structures whose dynamics are similar to those of bistable mechanical systems, such as Euler arches and Duffing oscillators. Of particular interest are the molecular structures capable of spontaneous vibrations and stochastic resonance. Recently, oligomeric molecules that were a few nanometers in size and exhibited the bistable dynamics of an Euler arch were identified through molecular dynamics simulations of short fragments of thermo-responsive polymers subject to force loading. In this article, we present molecular dynamics simulations of short pyridine-furan springs a few nanometers in size and demonstrate the bistable dynamics of a Duffing oscillator with thermally-activated spontaneous vibrations and stochastic resonance.

Spontaneous Vibrations and Stochastic Resonance of Short Oligomeric Springs.

Project description:There is growing interest in molecular structures that exhibit dynamics similar to bistable mechanical systems. These structures have the potential to be used as two-state operating units for various functional purposes. Particularly intriguing are the bistable systems that display spontaneous vibrations and stochastic resonance. Previously, via molecular dynamics simulations, it was discovered that short pyridine-furan springs in water, when subjected to stretching with power loads, exhibit the bistable dynamics of a Duffing oscillator. In this study, we extend these simulations to include short pyridine-pyrrole and pyridine-furan springs in a hydrophobic solvent. Our findings demonstrate that these systems also display the bistable dynamics, accompanied by spontaneous vibrations and stochastic resonance activated by thermal noise.

Stress granules display bistable dynamics modulated by Cdk.

Project description:Stress granules (SGs) are conserved biomolecular condensates that originate in response to many stress conditions. These membraneless organelles contain nontranslating mRNAs and a diverse subproteome, but our knowledge of their regulation and functional relevance is still incipient. Here, we describe a mutual-inhibition interplay between SGs and Cdc28, the budding yeast Cdk. Among Cdc28 interactors acting as negative modulators of Start, we have identified Whi8, an RNA-binding protein that localizes to SGs and recruits the mRNA of CLN3, the most upstream G1 cyclin, for efficient translation inhibition and Cdk inactivation under stress. However, Whi8 also contributes to recruiting Cdc28 to SGs, where it acts to promote their dissolution. As predicted by a mutual-inhibition framework, the SG constitutes a bistable system that is modulated by Cdk. Since mammalian cells display a homologous mechanism, we propose that the opposing functions of specific mRNA-binding proteins and Cdk's subjugate SG dynamics to a conserved hysteretic switch.

Low-dimensional Dynamics of Two Coupled Biological Oscillators.

Project description:The circadian clock and the cell cycle are two biological oscillatory processes that coexist within individual cells. These two oscillators were found to interact, which can lead to their synchronization. Here, we develop a method to identify a low-dimensional stochastic model of the coupled system directly from time-lapse imaging in single cells. In particular, we infer the coupling and non-linear dynamics of the two oscillators from thousands of mouse and human single-cell fluorescence microscopy traces. This coupling predicts multiple phase-locked states showing different degrees of robustness against molecular fluctuations inherent to cellular-scale biological oscillators. For the 1:1 state, the predicted phase-shifts upon period perturbations were validated experimentally. Moreover, the phase-locked states are temperature-independent and evolutionarily conserved from mouse to human, hinting at a common underlying dynamical mechanism. Finally, we detect a signature of the coupled dynamics in a physiological context, explaining why tissues with different proliferation states exhibited shifted circadian clock phases.

Modeling the Bistable Dynamics of the Innate Immune System.

Project description:The size of primary challenge with lipopolysaccharide induces changes in the innate immune cells phenotype between pro-inflammatory and pro-tolerant states when facing a secondary lipopolysaccharide challenge. To determine the molecular mechanisms governing this differential response, we propose a mathematical model for the interaction between three proteins involved in the immune cell decision making: IRAK-1, PI3K, and RelB. The mutual inhibition of IRAK-1 and PI3K in the model leads to bistable dynamics. By using the levels of RelB as indicative of strength of the immune responses, we connect the size of different primary lipopolysaccharide doses to the differential phenotypical outcomes following a secondary challenge. We further predict under what circumstances the primary LPS dose does not influence the response to a secondary challenge. Our results can be used to guide treatments for patients with either autoimmune disease or compromised immune system.

Dynamics of oscillators globally coupled via two mean fields.

Project description:Many studies of synchronization properties of coupled oscillators, based on the classical Kuramoto approach, focus on ensembles coupled via a mean field. Here we introduce a setup of Kuramoto-type phase oscillators coupled via two mean fields. We derive stability properties of the incoherent state and find traveling wave solutions with different locking patterns; stability properties of these waves are found numerically. Mostly nontrivial states appear when the two fields compete, i.e. one tends to synchronize oscillators while the other one desynchronizes them. Here we identify normal branches which bifurcate from the incoherent state in a usual way, and anomalous branches, appearance of which cannot be described as a bifurcation. Furthermore, hybrid branches combining properties of both are described. In the situations where no stable traveling wave exists, modulated quasiperiodic in time dynamics is observed. Our results indicate that a competition between two coupling channels can lead to a complex system behavior, providing a potential generalized framework for understanding of complex phenomena in natural oscillatory systems.

Dynamics in hybrid complex systems of switches and oscillators.

Project description:While considerable progress has been made in the analysis of large systems containing a single type of coupled dynamical component (e.g., coupled oscillators or coupled switches), systems containing diverse components (e.g., both oscillators and switches) have received much less attention. We analyze large, hybrid systems of interconnected Kuramoto oscillators and Hopfield switches with positive feedback. In this system, oscillator synchronization promotes switches to turn on. In turn, when switches turn on, they enhance the synchrony of the oscillators to which they are coupled. Depending on the choice of parameters, we find theoretically coexisting stable solutions with either (i) incoherent oscillators and all switches permanently off, (ii) synchronized oscillators and all switches permanently on, or (iii) synchronized oscillators and switches that periodically alternate between the on and off states. Numerical experiments confirm these predictions. We discuss how transitions between these steady state solutions can be onset deterministically through dynamic bifurcations or spontaneously due to finite-size fluctuations.

Quantifying the dynamics of coupled networks of switches and oscillators.

Project description:Complex network dynamics have been analyzed with models of systems of coupled switches or systems of coupled oscillators. However, many complex systems are composed of components with diverse dynamics whose interactions drive the system's evolution. We, therefore, introduce a new modeling framework that describes the dynamics of networks composed of both oscillators and switches. Both oscillator synchronization and switch stability are preserved in these heterogeneous, coupled networks. Furthermore, this model recapitulates the qualitative dynamics for the yeast cell cycle consistent with the hypothesized dynamics resulting from decomposition of the regulatory network into dynamic motifs. Introducing feedback into the cell-cycle network induces qualitative dynamics analogous to limitless replicative potential that is a hallmark of cancer. As a result, the proposed model of switch and oscillator coupling provides the ability to incorporate mechanisms that underlie the synchronized stimulus response ubiquitous in biochemical systems.

Optically levitated nanoparticle as a model system for stochastic bistable dynamics.

Project description:Nano-mechanical resonators have gained an increasing importance in nanotechnology owing to their contributions to both fundamental and applied science. Yet, their small dimensions and mass raises some challenges as their dynamics gets dominated by nonlinearities that degrade their performance, for instance in sensing applications. Here, we report on the precise control of the nonlinear and stochastic bistable dynamics of a levitated nanoparticle in high vacuum. We demonstrate how it can lead to efficient signal amplification schemes, including stochastic resonance. This work contributes to showing the use of levitated nanoparticles as a model system for stochastic bistable dynamics, with applications to a wide variety of fields.
