Equilibrium cluster statistics of cooperative and anticooperative binding on finite one-dimensional rings
Thomas Alfonsi, Jérôme Dorignac, John Palmeri +1
We study equilibrium clustering in a finite one-dimensional lattice gas of sites with periodic boundary conditions, as a minimal model for adsorption and binding on small ring-…

Reconstruction of the Bacterial Flagellar Motor's Energy Landscape, Viscous Load, and Torque Generation Across Diffusion Regimes
N. J. Lopez-Alamilla, A. L. Nord, F. Pedaci +2
The bacterial flagellar motor (BFM) converts transmembrane ion flux into directed mechanical rotation, driving bacterial motility. Despite extensive study, the frictional forces an…

Signature of (anti)cooperativity in the stochastic fluctuations of small systems: application to the bacterial flagellar motor
MarÃa-José Franco-Oñate, Andrea Parmeggiani, Jérôme Dorignac +6
The cooperative binding of molecular agents onto a substrate is pervasive in living systems. To study whether a system shows cooperativity, one can rely on a fluctuation analysis o…
