A Thermodynamic Model of Microtubule Assembly and Disassembly (2009)
Journal Article
Piette, B., Liu, J., Peeters, K., Smertenko, A., Hawkins, T., Deeks, M., …Hussey, P. (2009). A Thermodynamic Model of Microtubule Assembly and Disassembly. PLoS ONE, 4(8), Article e6378. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0006378

Microtubules are self-assembling polymers whose dynamics are essential for the normal function of cellular processes including chromosome separation and cytokinesis. Therefore understanding what factors effect microtubule growth is fundamental to our... Read More about A Thermodynamic Model of Microtubule Assembly and Disassembly.

A kinetic model for the metabolism of the herbicide safener fenclorim in Arabidopsis thaliana. (2009)
Journal Article
Liu, J., Brazier-Hicks, M., & Edwards, R. (2009). A kinetic model for the metabolism of the herbicide safener fenclorim in Arabidopsis thaliana. Biophysical Chemistry, 143(1-2), 85-94. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bpc.2009.04.006

Glutathione transferases (GSTs) catalyse the detoxification of a range of xenobiotics, including crop protection agents in plants. Recent studies in cultures of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana have shown that the herbicide safener fenclorim (4,6...
