Translational and rotational dynamics of a self-propelled Janus probe in crowded environments
Ligesh Theeyancheri, Subhasish Chaki, Nairhita Samanta +3
We computationally investigate the dynamics of a self-propelled Janus probe in crowded environments. The crowding is caused by the presence of viscoelastic polymers or non-viscoela…
Diffusion of self-propelled Janus tracer in polymeric environment
Nairhita Samanta, Rohit Goswami, Rajarshi Chakrabarti
Artificially synthesized Janus particles have tremendous prospective as in-vivo drug-delivery agents due to the possibility of self-propulsion by external stimuli. Here we report t…
Tracer diffusion in a sea of polymers with binding zones: mobile vs frozen traps
Nairhita Samanta, Rajarshi Chakrabarti
We use molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the tracer diffusion in a sea of polymers with specific binding zones for the tracer. These binding zones act as traps. Our sim…
Chain reconfiguration in active noise
Nairhita Samanta, Rajarshi Chakrabarti
In a typical single molecule experiment, dynamics of an unfolded proteins is studied by determining the reconfiguration time using long-range Forster resonance energy transfer wher…
Reconfiguration Dynamics in folded and intrinsically disordered protein with internal friction: Effect of solvent quality and denaturant
Nairhita Samanta, Rajarshi Chakrabarti
We consider a phantom chain model of polymer with internal friction in a harmonic confinement and extend it to take care of effects of solvent quality following a mean field approa…
Looping dynamics of flexible chain with internal friction at different degree of compactness
Nairhita Samanta, Rajarshi Chakrabarti
Recently single molecule experiments have shown the importance of internal friction in biopolymer dynamics. Such studies also suggested that the internal friction although independ…
Looping and reconfiguration dynamics of a flexible chain with internal friction
Nairhita Samanta, Jayanta Ghosh, Rajarshi Chakrabarti
In recent past, experiments and simulations have suggested that apart from the solvent friction, friction arising from the protein itself plays an important role in protein folding…
