Power-Limited Contraction Dynamics of Vorticella convallaria: An Ultrafast Biological Spring

Vorticella convallaria is one of the fastest and most powerful cellular machines. The cell body is attached to a substrate by a slender stalk containing a polymeric structure—the spasmoneme. Helical coiling of the stalk results from rapid contraction of the spasmoneme, an event mediated by calcium b...
