Mesoscopic Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics of Single Macromolecules and Dynamic Entropy-Energy Compensation
Hong Qian
We introduce axiomatically a complete thermodynamic formalism for a single macromolecule, either with or without detailed balance, in an isothermal ambient fluid based on its stoch…
The Mathematical Theory of Molecular Motor Movement and Chemomechanical Energy Transduction
Hong Qian
The mathematical formulation of the model for molecular movement of single motor proteins driven by cyclic biochemical reactions in an aqueous environment leads to a drifted Browni…
An Analysis of the Thermodynamics of Hydrophobic Solvation Based on Scaled Particle Theory
Hong Qian
A comprehensive, semi-quantitative model for the thermodynamics of hydrophobic solvation is presented. The model is based on a very simple premise suggested by the scaled particle…
From Discrete Protein Kinetics to Continuous Brownian Dynamics: A New Perspective
Hong Qian
An analysis on the discrete versus continuous views of kinetics of macromolecules is presented. It is shown that the discrete approach traditional to biochemistry is insufficient f…
