Modelling how plant cell-cycle progression leads to cell size regulation (2023)
Journal Article
Williamson, D., Tasker-Brown, W., Murray, J., Jones, A. R., & Band, L. R. (2023). Modelling how plant cell-cycle progression leads to cell size regulation. PLoS Computational Biology, 19(10), Article e1011503. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1011503

Populations of cells typically maintain a consistent size, despite cell division rarely being precisely symmetrical. Therefore, cells must possess a mechanism of “size control”, whereby the cell volume at birth affects cell-cycle progression. While s...

Parameter estimation in fluorescence recovery after photobleaching: Quantitative analysis of protein binding reactions and diffusion (2021)
Journal Article
Williamson, D. E., Sahai, E., Jenkins, R. P., O'Dea, R. D., & King, J. R. (2021). Parameter estimation in fluorescence recovery after photobleaching: Quantitative analysis of protein binding reactions and diffusion. Journal of Mathematical Biology, 83, Article 1. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00285-021-01616-z

Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a common experimental method for investigating rates of molecular redistribution in biological systems. Many mathematical models of FRAP have been developed, the purpose of which is usually the est...

An optogenetic method for interrogating YAP1 and TAZ nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling (2021)
Journal Article
Dowbaj, A. M., Jenkins, R. P., Williamson, D., Heddleston, J. M., Ciccarelli, A., Fallesen, T., …Sahai, E. (2021). An optogenetic method for interrogating YAP1 and TAZ nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling. Journal of Cell Science, 134(13), Article 5520657. https://doi.org/10.1242/jcs.253484

The shuttling of transcription factors and transcriptional regulators into and out of the nucleus is central to the regulation of many biological processes. Here we describe a new method for studying the rates of nuclear entry and exit of transcripti... Read More about An optogenetic method for interrogating YAP1 and TAZ nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling.
