Kinesin's backsteps under mechanical load.
Kinesins move processively toward the plus end of microtubules by hydrolyzing ATP for each step. From an enzymatic perspective, the mechanism of mechanical motion coupled to the nucleotide chemistry is often well explained using a single-loop cyclic reaction. However, several difficulties arise in interpreting kinesin's backstepping within this framework, especially when external forces oppose ...
متن کاملPolymer Brushes under High Load
Polymer coatings are frequently used to provide repulsive forces between surfaces in solution. After 25 years of design and study, a quantitative model to explain and predict repulsion under strong compression is still lacking. Here, we combine experiments, simulations, and theory to study polymer coatings under high loads and demonstrate a validated model for the repulsive forces, proposing th...
متن کاملMechanisms of Mesothelial Tissue Lubrication
In the pleural space, sliding between the lung and chest wall induces shear stress that could damage the delicate mesothelial cells covering the tissue surfaces. Normally, the pleural space, which is filled with fluid, is able to sustain continuous shear loading throughout its lifetime. To understand the mechanisms in preventing frictional damage on mesothelial tissue, we conducted experiments ...
متن کاملSynovial Joints and Lubrication mechanisms
Synovial joints form the most important feature of the human body as they represent the centers of the most essential and basic activity in the human beings, which is motion. A synovial joint can be described as a load carrying system consisting of two mating bones with tangential and /or normal motions. The bone ends, which are usually spherical in appearance, are covered with a soft sponge li...
متن کاملMechanical behaviour of articular cartilage under tensile cyclic load.
INTRODUCTION Although fatigue has been implicated in cartilage failure, there are only two published studies in this area, by the same author. However, in these previous studies cartilage was tested in the direction parallel to that of collagen orientation in the superficial layer, where it possesses greater tensile strength. In the present work, articular cartilage was also tested along the di...
