Motor Proteins Have Highly Correlated Brownian Engines
Two headed motor proteins, such as kinesin and dynein, hydrolyze environmental ATP in order to propel unidirectionally along cytoskeletal filaments such as microtubules. In the intensely studied case of kinesin, protein heads of approximate dimension 4 × 4 × 7 nm bind primarily on the α tubulin site of asymmetric α–β 8nm-long tubulin dimers that constitute the microtubular protofilaments. Kines...
متن کاملChiral brownian heat pump.
We present the exact analysis of a chiral Brownian motor and heat pump. Optimization of the construction predicts, for a nanoscale device, frequencies of the order of kHz and cooling rates of the order of femtojoule per second.
متن کاملCanonical active Brownian motion.
Active Brownian motion is the complex motion of active Brownian particles. They are "active" in the sense that they can transform their internal energy into energy of motion and thus create complex motion patterns. Theories of active Brownian motion so far imposed couplings between the internal energy and the kinetic energy of the system. We investigate how this idea can be naturally taken furt...
متن کاملHeat fluctuations in Brownian transducers.
The heat fluctuation probability distribution function in Brownian transducers operating between two heat reservoirs is studied. We find, both analytically and numerically, that the recently proposed fluctuation theorem for heat exchange [C. Jarzynski and D. K. Wojcik, Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 230602 (2004)] has to be applied carefully when the coupling mechanism between both baths is considered. W...
متن کاملBrownian motion with active fluctuations.
We study the effect of different types of fluctuation on the motion of self-propelled particles in two spatial dimensions. We distinguish between passive and active fluctuations. Passive fluctuations (e.g., thermal fluctuations) are independent of the orientation of the particle. In contrast, active ones point parallel or perpendicular to the time dependent orientation of the particle. We deriv...
