  • The cell cortex consists of a chemical and a mechanical subsystem, but how energy is allocated between them is unknown. Now, measurements of the entropy production rate have revealed what determines the cell cortex’s energy budget.

  • While synthetic active matter research has concentrated on developing point-like, interacting entities, designing freely jointed active assemblies from autonomously powered components has remained a challenge. Here, the authors introduce freely jointed active polymers created from self-propelled droplets, uncovering emergent rigidity and propulsion, thereby advancing towards self-morphic synthetic materials.

  • ATPases can cyclically convert free energy into mechanical work. Now, it is shown that the GTPase Rab5 can also perform mechanical work as part of a two-component molecular motor with the tethering protein EEA1.

  • The field of dense active matter has been the fount of many intriguing phenomena. Here, authors show that nonreciprocal interactions can emerge between active particles due to a dynamical feedback between their motility and the corresponding slow remodelling of a dense passive compressible medium.

  • Synaptotagmin-1 is known to accelerate membrane fusion during neuronal exocytosis in response to Ca2+, but how it does this is unclear. By probing the activity of synaptotagmin-1 under conditions of low ionic strength, it is now shown that SNARE-mediated fusion is dependent on synaptotagmin-1, which tethers liposomes together but at distances too far for fusion. Ca2+ then induces synaptotagmin-1 to bring the liposomes closer together, allowing fusion to proceed.

  • Self-reproducing autocatalytic chemical reaction networks have the potential to demonstrate heritability and evolvability, however, achieving functional catalytic assembly and reaction networks within a phase-separated environment remains challenging. Here, the authors report multispecies chemical reaction networks of self-producing RNAs within charge-rich coacervates.
