We analyze this problem through scaling theory and simulations, and uncover a regime where filaments’ ends find each other through bending fluctuations without the need for the whole filament to diffuse. This results in a very substantial speedup of assembly in physiological regimes, and could help with understanding the dynamics of actin and intermediate filaments in biological processes such as wound healing and cell division."}],"date_published":"2023-12-01T00:00:00Z","volume":131,"quality_controlled":"1","scopus_import":"1","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1079-7114"],"issn":["0031-9007"]},"title":"Transverse fluctuations control the assembly of semiflexible filaments","citation":{"ieee":"V.
