Active translocation of a semiflexible polymer assisted by an ATP-based molecular motor
A. Fiasconaro, J. J. Mazo, F. Falo
In this work we study the assisted translocation of a polymer across a membrane nanopore, inside which a molecular motor exerts a force fuelled by the hydrolysis of ATP molecules.…
Modeling the mechano-chemistry of the ϕ29 DNA translocation motor
R. Perez-Carrasco, A. Fiasconaro, F. Falo +1
We present a study of the DNA translocation of the bacteriophage ϕ29 packaging molecular motor. From the experimental available information we present a model system based in an st…
Directional motion of forced polymer chains with hydrodynamic interaction
Daniel Santos-Oliván, Alessandro Fiasconaro, Fernando Falo
We study the propulsion of a one-dimensional (1D) polymer chain under sinusoidal external forces in the overdamped (low Reynolds number) regime. We show that, when hydrodynamical i…
Depinning of kinks in a Josephson-junction ratchet array
E. Trias, J. J. Mazo, F. Falo +1
We have measured the depinning of trapped kinks in a ratchet potential using a fabricated circular array of Josephson junctions. Our ratchet system consists of a parallel array of…
Intrinsically localized chaos in discrete nonlinear extended systems
P. J. Martinez, L. M. Floria, F. Falo +1
The phenomenon of intrinsic localization in discrete nonlinear extended systems, i.e. the (generic) existence of discrete breathers, is shown to be not restricted to periodic solut…
Josephson Junction Ladders: Ground State and Relaxation Phenomena
Juan J. Mazo, Fernando Falo, Luis M. Floría
This paper considers a Josephson Junction array with the geometry of a ladder and anisotropy in the Josephson couplings. The ground state problem for the ladder corresponds to the…
