Intracellular transport driven by cytoskeletal motors: General mechanisms and defects
Cecile Appert-Rolland, Maximilian Ebbinghaus, Ludger Santen
Cells are strongly out-of-equilibrium systems driven by continuous energy supply. They carry out many vital functions requiring active transport of various ingredients and organell…
Motility states in bidirectional cargo transport
Sarah Klein, Cecile Appert-Rolland, Ludger Santen
Intracellular cargos which are transported by molecular motors move stochastically along cytoskeleton filaments. In particular for bidirectionally transported cargos it is an open…
Fluctuation effects in bidirectional cargo transport
Sarah Klein, Cécile Appert-Rolland, Ludger Santen
We discuss a theoretical model for bidirectional cargo transport in biological cells, which is driven by teams of molecular motors and subject to thermal fluctuations. The model de…
Stochastic modeling of cargo transport by teams of molecular motors
Sarah Klein, Cécile Appert-Rolland, Ludger Santen
Many different types of cellular cargos are transported bidirectionally along microtubules by teams of molecular motors. The motion of this cargo-motors system has been experimenta…
Environmental control of microtubule-based bidirectional cargo-transport
Sarah Klein, Cécile Appert-Rolland, Ludger Santen
Inside cells, various cargos are transported by teams of molecular motors. Intriguingly, the motors involved generally have opposite pulling directions, and the resulting cargo dyn…
