Intra-cellular traffic: bio-molecular motors on filamentary tracks
Debashish Chowdhury, Aakash Basu, Ashok Garai +4
Molecular motors are macromolecular complexes which use some form of input energy to perform mechanical work. The filamentary tracks, on which these motors move, are made of either…
Modeling protein synthesis from a physicist's perspective: a toy model
Aakash Basu, Debashish Chowdhury
Proteins are polymers of amino acids. These macromolecules are synthesized by intracellular machines called ribosomes. Although the experimental investigation of protein synthesis…
Traffic of interacting ribosomes on mRNA during protein synthesis: effects of chemo-mechanics of individual ribosomes
Aakash Basu, Debashish Chowdhury
Many {\it ribosomes} simultaneously move on the same messenger RNA (mRNA), each synthesizing separately a copy of the same protein. In contrast to the earlier models, here {\it we…
Traffic of interacting ribosomes: effects of single-machine mechano-chemistry on protein synthesis
Aakash Basu, Debashish Chowdhury
Many ribosomes simultaneously move on the same messenger RNA (mRNA), each separately synthesizing the protein coded by the mRNA. Earlier models of ribosome traffic represent each r…
