Mechanical response of MreB filament networks to shear deformations. (A) Frequency-dependent elastic modulus of MreB and actin filament networks. MreB filaments are subject to shear deformations of fixed 1% amplitude and frequency between 0.5 and 100 rad/s. (B) Strain-dependent elastic modulus of MreB and actin filament networks. Filaments are subject to shear deformations at a fixed frequency (1 rad/s) and amplitudes between 0.1% and 1,000%. The protein concentration is 24 μM. Symbols correspond to GTP-MreB (▪), ATP-MreB (□), and F-actin (⋄).
