Biohybrid active matter -- the emergent properties of cell-mediated microtransport
Valentino Lepro, Robert Großmann, Oliver Nagel +4
As society paves its way towards device miniaturization and precision medicine, micro-scale actuation and guided transport become increasingly prominent research fields with high i…
Force-dependent unbinding rate of molecular motors from stationary optical trap data
Florian Berger, Stefan Klumpp, Reinhard Lipowsky
Molecular motors walk along filaments until they detach stochastically with a force-dependent unbinding rate. Here, we show that this unbinding rate can be obtained from the analys…
Traffic by multiple species of molecular motors
Yan Chai, Stefan Klumpp, Melanie J. I. Muller +1
We study the traffic of two types of molecular motors using the two-species symmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) with periodic boundary conditions and with attachment and deta…
Transport by molecular motors in the presence of static defects
Yan Chai, Reinhard Lipowsky, Stefan Klumpp
The transport by molecular motors along cytoskeletal filaments is studied theoretically in the presence of static defects. The movements of single motors are described as biased ra…
Motility states of molecular motors engaged in a stochastic tug-of-war
Melanie J. I. Muller, Stefan Klumpp, Reinhard Lipowsky
Intracellular transport is mediated by molecular motors that pull cargos along cytoskeletal filaments. Many cargos move bidirectionally and are transported by two teams of motors w…
