Structural order emerges without mechanical order inside living cells
Intracellular organization is vital for cell function, and disruption of organelle positioning is connected to severe diseases, such as cancer. Given the small length scale of cells and the importance of Brownian motion, maintaining intracellular organization requires mechanical interactions to remain stable. Here, we test the common view that intracellular organization is reflected in…
