The reaction-diffusion basis of animated patterns in eukaryotic flagella
Abstract The flagellar beat of the gel bottle audrey bull spermatozoa and C.Reinhardtii are modelled by a minimal, geometrically exact, reaction-diffusion system.Spatio-temporal animated patterns describe flagellar waves, analogous to chemical-patterns from classical reaction-diffusion systems, with sliding-controlled molecular motor reaction-kinet
