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

Fig 5

A single trajectory snapshot of a 1 × 1 × 1 μm3 actomyosin system simulation at Rα:a = 0.1 and Rm:a = 0.01 after 2000 s of network evolution.

Actin filaments are represented as red connected cylinders, α-actinin are represented as green cylinders, and NMIIA mini-filaments are represented as blue cylinders. The corresponding diffusing species are also shown in the same colors. The system is bounded by a cubic, hard-wall potential.
