Intra-cellular transport by single-headed kinesin KIF1A: effects of single-motor mechano-chemistry and steric interactions
Philip Greulich, Ashok Garai, Katsuhiro Nishinari +2
In eukaryotic cells, many motor proteins can move simultaneously on a single microtubule track. This leads to interesting collective phenomena like jamming. Recently we reported ({…
Traffic of interacting ribosomes on mRNA during protein synthesis: effects of chemo-mechanics of individual ribosomes
Aakash Basu, Debashish Chowdhury
Many {\it ribosomes} simultaneously move on the same messenger RNA (mRNA), each synthesizing separately a copy of the same protein. In contrast to the earlier models, here {\it we…
From aggressive driving to molecular motor traffic
Ambarish Kunwar, Andreas Schadschneider, Debashish Chowdhury
Motivated by recent experimental results for the step sizes of dynein motor proteins, we develope a cellular automata model for intra-cellular traffic of dynein motors incorporatin…
Competition of coarsening and shredding of clusters in a driven diffusive lattice gas
Ambarish Kunwar, Debashish Chowdhury, Andreas Schadschneider +1
We investigate a driven diffusive lattice gas model with two oppositely moving species of particles. The model is motivated by bi-directional traffic of ants on a pre-existing trai…
Collective effects in intra-cellular molecular motor transport: coordination, cooperation and competetion
Debashish Chowdhury
Molecular motors do not work in isolation {\it in-vivo}. We highlight some of the coordinations, cooperations and competitions that determine the collective properties of molecular…
Traffic of interacting ribosomes: effects of single-machine mechano-chemistry on protein synthesis
Aakash Basu, Debashish Chowdhury
Many ribosomes simultaneously move on the same messenger RNA (mRNA), each separately synthesizing the protein coded by the mRNA. Earlier models of ribosome traffic represent each r…
