Thermodynamic role of main reaction pathway and multi-body information flow in membrane transport
Satoshi Yoshida, Yasushi Okada, Eiro Muneyuki +1
The two classes of membrane transport, namely, secondary active and passive transport, are understood as different reaction pathways in the same protein structure, described by the…
Information heat engine: converting information to energy by feedback control
Shoichi Toyabe, Takahiro Sagawa, Masahito Ueda +2
In 1929, Leo Szilard invented a feedback protocol in which a hypothetical intelligence called Maxwell's demon pumps heat from an isothermal environment and transduces it to work. A…
Nonequilibrium energetics of a single F1-ATPase molecule
Shoichi Toyabe, Tetsuaki Okamoto, Takahiro Watanabe-Nakayama +3
Molecular motors drive mechanical motions utilizing the free energy liberated from chemical reactions such as ATP hydrolysis. Although it is essential to know the efficiency of thi…
