Equations of Interdoublet Separation during Flagella Motion Reveal Mechanisms of Wave Propagation and Instability

The motion of flagella and cilia arises from the coordinated activity of dynein motor protein molecules arrayed along microtubule doublets that span the length of axoneme (the flagellar cytoskeleton). Dynein activity causes relative sliding between the doublets, which generates propulsive bending of...
