Welcome to CometWiki. This site describes the set up and usage of `comet' the actin-based motility simulator.

Examples

Symmetry Breaking and Motility

• Example simulation run 2D (from Figure 1 in paper)
• 3D links view of above example

Forces during Symmetry Breaking

• Forces and link breaks during symmetry breaking
• Link breaks during smooth motility

Circumferential and Radial measurements

• Circumferential measurements during symmetry breaking
• Radial measurements during symmetry breaking
• Circumferential measurements during smooth motilty
• Radial measurements during smooth motilty

Ellipsoid and Capsule symmetry breaking

• Sideways symmetry breaking of ellipsoid (3D)
• Sideways symmetry breaking of capsule (2D)

Reconstructions of in vitro Constrained Shells

• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #1
• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #2
• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #3
• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #4

Reconstructions of in vitro Unconstrained Shells

• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #1
• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #2
• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #3
• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #4
• 3D reconstruction of in vitro shell constrained between slide and coverslip #5
