Physical modeling of ribosomes along messenger RNA: estimating kinetic parameters from ribosome profiling experiments using a ballistic model
Carole Chevalier, Jérôme Dorignac, Yahaya Ibrahim +9
Gene expression consists in the synthesis of proteins from the information encoded on DNA. One of the two main steps of gene expression is the translation of messenger RNA (mRNA) i…
Shape dependent phoretic propulsion of slender active particles
Yahaya Ibrahim, Ramin Golestanian, Tanniemola B. Liverpool
We theoretically study the self-propulsion of a thin (slender) colloid driven by asymmetric chemical reactions on its surface at vanishing Reynolds number. Using the method of matc…
Multiple phoretic mechanisms in the self-propulsion of a Pt-insulator Janus swimmer
Yahaya Ibrahim, Ramin Golestanian, Tanniemola B. Liverpool
We present a detailed theoretical study which demonstrates that electrokinetic effects can also play a role in the motion of metallic-insulator spherical Janus particles. Essential…
How walls affect the dynamics of self-phoretic microswimmers
Yahaya Ibrahim, Tanniemola B. Liverpool
We study the effect of a nearby planar wall on the propulsion of a spherical phoretic micro-swimmer driven by reactions on its surface. An asymmetric coverage of catalysts on its s…
The dynamics of a self-phoretic Janus swimmer near a wall
Yahaya Ibrahim, Tanniemola B. Liverpool
We study the effect of a nearby planar wall on the propulsion of a phoretic Janus micro-swimmer driven by asymmetric reactions on its surface which absorb reactants and generate pr…
Electrokinetic Effects in Catalytic Pt-Insulator Janus Swimmers
S. Ebbens, D. A. Gregory, G. Dunderdale +4
The effect of added salt on the propulsion of Janus platinum-polystyrene colloids in hydrogen peroxide solution is studied experimentally. It is found that micromolar quantities of…
