Fluctuation relations for molecular motors
D. Lacoste, K. Mallick
This review is focused on the application of specific fluctuation relations, such as the Gallavotti-Cohen relation, to ratchet models of a molecular motor. A special emphasis is pl…
Effective zero-thickness model for a conductive membrane driven by an electric field
Falko Ziebert, Martin Z. Bazant, David Lacoste
The behavior of a conductive membrane in a static (DC) electric field is investigated theoretically. An effective zero-thickness model is constructed based on a Robin-type boundary…
Role of ATP-hydrolysis in the dynamics of a single actin filament
Padinhateeri Ranjith, Kirone Mallick, Jean-Francois Joanny +1
We study the stochastic dynamics of growth and shrinkage of single actin filaments taking into account insertion, removal, and ATP hydrolysis of subunits either according to the ve…
Fluctuation Theorem for the flashing ratchet model of molecular motors
D. Lacoste, K. Mallick
Molecular motors convert chemical energy derived from the hydrolysis of ATP into mechanical energy. A well-studied model of a molecular motor is the flashing ratchet model. We show…
Thermal expansion within a chain of magnetic colloidal particles
D. Lacoste, C. Brangbour, J. Bibette +1
We study the thermal expansion of chains formed by self-assembly of magnetic colloidal particles in a magnetic field. Using video-microscopy, complete positional data of all the pa…
