MEDYAN: Mechanochemical Simulations of Contraction and Polarity Alignment in Actomyosin Networks

Fig 1

A cytoskeletal network in the MEDYAN model.

A complex cytoskeletal network can be simulated with MEDYAN’s stochastic reaction-diffusion scheme. Chemical interactions will cause complex network evolution, such as the process of actin filament bundling. See Section A in S1 Text for a more detailed description of all chemical reactions that can be included in a simulation.
