Mechanistic mathematical model of polarity in yeast

We use a novel mathematical modeling framework to dissect the contributions of diffusive transport and directed vesicular transport in polarity establishment. The findings call into question the role of vesicle-mediated Cdc42 traffic in polarity maintenance.
