Target search on DNA -- effect of coiling

Michael A. Lomholt, Ralf Metzler

Some proteins can find their targets on DNA faster than by pure diffusion in the three-dimensional cytoplasm, through the process of facilitated diffusion: They can loosely bind to…

Bayesian inference of scaled versus fractional Brownian motion

Samudrajit Thapa, Seongyu Park, Yeongjin Kim +3

We present a Bayesian inference scheme for scaled Brownian motion, and investigate its performance on synthetic data for parameter estimation and model selection in a combined infe…

Bayesian inference of Lévy walks via hidden Markov models

Seongyu Park, Samudrajit Thapa, Yeongjin Kim +2

The Lévy walk is a non-Brownian random walk model that has been found to describe anomalous dynamic phenomena in diverse fields ranging from biology over quantum physics to ecology…

Objective comparison of methods to decode anomalous diffusion

Gorka Muñoz-Gil, Giovanni Volpe, Miguel Angel Garcia-March +31

Deviations from Brownian motion leading to anomalous diffusion are found in transport dynamics from quantum physics to life sciences. The characterization of anomalous diffusion fr…

First-passage and first-hitting times of Levy flights and Levy walks

V. V. Palyulin, G. Blackburn, M. A. Lomholt +4

For both Levy flight and Levy walk search processes we analyse the full distribution of first-passage and first-hitting (or first-arrival) times. These are, respectively, the times…

Stochastic unfolding of nanoconfined DNA: experiments, model and Bayesian analysis

Jens Krog, Mohammadreza Alizadehheidari, Erik Werner +6

Nanochannels provide means for detailed experiments on the effect of confinement on biomacromolecules, such as DNA. We here introduce a model for the complete unfolding of DNA from…
