Self-organized density patterns of molecular motors in arrays of cytoskeletal filaments
Stefan Klumpp, Theo M. Nieuwenhuizen, Reinhard Lipowsky
The stationary states of systems with many molecular motors are studied theoretically for uniaxial and centered (aster-like) arrangements of cytoskeletal filaments using Monte Carl…
Movements of molecular motors: Ratchets, random walks and traffic phenomena
Stefan Klumpp, Theo M. Nieuwenhuizen, Reinhard Lipowsky
Processive molecular motors which drive the traffic of organelles in cells move in a directed way along cytoskeletal filaments. On large time scales, they perform motor walks, i.e.…
Shape fluctuations and elastic properties of two-component bilayer membranes
Alberto Imparato, Julian C. Shillcock, Reinhard Lipowsky
The elastic properties of two-component bilayer membranes are studied using a coarse grain model for amphiphilic molecules. The two species of amphiphiles considered here differ on…
Asymmetric simple exclusion processes with diffusive bottlenecks
Stefan Klumpp, Reinhard Lipowsky
One-dimensional asymmetric simple exclusion processes (ASEPs) which are coupled to external reservoirs via diffusive transport are studied. These ASEPs consist of active compartmen…
Walks of molecular motors interacting with immobilized filaments
Theo M. Nieuwenhuizen, Stefan Klumpp, Reinhard Lipowsky
Movements of molecular motors on cytoskeletal filaments are described by directed walks on a line. Detachment from this line is allowed to occur with a small probability. Motion in…
Phase transitions in systems with two species of molecular motors
Stefan Klumpp, Reinhard Lipowsky
Systems with two species of active molecular motors moving on (cytoskeletal) filaments into opposite directions are studied theoretically using driven lattice gas models. The motor…
