Model of genetic variation in human social networks.

abstract：:Earlier Monte Carlo studies on a single-helix model of the GTP cap at the end of a microtubule are extended here to a more realistic five-start helix model of the microtubule end. As in the earlier work, phase changes occur at the microtubule end: the end is either capped with GTP and growing slowly or uncapped and sh...
