Derangement model of ligand-receptor binding
Mobolaji Williams
We introduce a derangement model of ligand-receptor binding that allows us to quantitatively frame the question "How can ligands seek out and bind to their optimal receptor sites i…
Permanents through probability distributions
Mobolaji Williams
We show that the permanent of a matrix can be written as the expectation value of a function of random variables each with zero mean and unit variance. This result is used to show…
Self-assembly of a dimer system
Mobolaji Williams
In the self-assembly process which drives the formation of cellular membranes, micelles, and capsids, a collection of separated subunits spontaneously binds together to form functi…
Permutation glass
Mobolaji Williams
The field of disordered systems provides many simple models in which the competing influences of thermal and non-thermal disorder lead to new phases and non-trivial thermal behavio…
Statistical Physics of the Symmetric Group
Mobolaji Williams, Eugene Shakhnovich
Ordered chains (such as chains of amino acids) are ubiquitous in biological cells, and these chains perform specific functions contingent on the sequence of their components. Using…
