Traffic by multiple species of molecular motors
Yan Chai, Stefan Klumpp, Melanie J. I. Muller +1
We study the traffic of two types of molecular motors using the two-species symmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) with periodic boundary conditions and with attachment and deta…

Transport by molecular motors in the presence of static defects
Yan Chai, Reinhard Lipowsky, Stefan Klumpp
The transport by molecular motors along cytoskeletal filaments is studied theoretically in the presence of static defects. The movements of single motors are described as biased ra…

Effects of the chemomechanical stepping cycle on the traffic of molecular motors
Stefan Klumpp, Yan Chai, Reinhard Lipowsky
We discuss effects of the stepping kinetics of molecular motors on their traffic behavior on crowded filaments using a simple two-state chemomechanical cycle. While the general tra…
