Role of anisotropy for protein-protein encounter

Jakob Schluttig, Christian B. Korn, Ulrich S. Schwarz

Protein-protein interactions comprise both transport and reaction steps. During the transport step, anisotropy of proteins and their complexes is important both for hydrodynamic di…

Stochastic simulations of cargo transport by processive molecular motors

Christian B. Korn, Stefan Klumpp, Reinhard Lipowsky +1

We use stochastic computer simulations to study the transport of a spherical cargo particle along a microtubule-like track on a planar substrate by several kinesin-like processive…

Mean encounter times for cell adhesion in hydrodynamic flow: analytical progress by dimensional reduction

C. B. Korn, U. S. Schwarz

For a cell moving in hydrodynamic flow above a wall, translational and rotational degrees of freedom are coupled by the Stokes equation. In addition, there is a close coupling of c…

Dynamic states of cells adhering in shear flow: from slipping to rolling

C. B. Korn, U. S. Schwarz

Motivated by rolling adhesion of white blood cells in the vasculature, we study how cells move in linear shear flow above a wall to which they can adhere via specific receptor-liga…

Mean first passage times for bond formation for a Brownian particle in linear shear flow above a wall

C. Korn, U. S. Schwarz

Motivated by cell adhesion in hydrodynamic flow, here we study bond formation between a spherical Brownian particle in linear shear flow carrying receptors for ligands covering the…

Efficiency of initiating cell adhesion in hydrodynamic flow

C. Korn, U. S. Schwarz

We theoretically investigate the efficiency of initial binding between a receptor-coated sphere and a ligand-coated wall in linear shear flow. The mean first passage time for bindi…
