Thermophoresis at a charged surface: the role of hydrodynamic slip.
By matching boundary layer hydrodynamics with slippage to the force-free flow at larger distances, we obtain the thermophoretic mobility of charged particles as a function of the Navier slip length b. A moderate value of b augments Ruckenstein's result by a term 2b/λ, where λ is the Debye length. If b exceeds the particle size a, the enhancement coefficient a/λ is independent of b but proportio...
متن کاملStudying epigenetic interactions using MicroScale Thermophoresis (MST)
Epigenetic regulation is based on specific molecular interactions between epigenetic reader, writer and eraser molecules and chromatin. Binding parameters of these interactions such as binding affinities, stoichiometries and thermodynamics are essential for the understanding of the establishment and maintenance of epigenetic networks. The MicroScale Thermophoresis (MST) is a rapid and precise m...
متن کاملAnalysis of Molecular Interactions Using the Thermophoresis Method and its Applications in Neuroscience and Biological Processes
Introduction: Molecular interactions play an important role in the phenomenon and biological processes. In fact, any cellular biological process ranged from genetic replication to the production of various proteins to the transmission of neurological, hormonal, membrane involves collections of molecular interactions that occur continuously. Interference in each of these processes at every stage...
متن کاملHydrodynamic interactions in protein folding.
We incorporate hydrodynamic interactions (HIs) in a coarse-grained and structure-based model of proteins by employing the Rotne-Prager hydrodynamic tensor. We study several small proteins and demonstrate that HIs facilitate folding. We also study HIV-1 protease and show that HIs make the flap closing dynamics faster. The HIs are found to affect time correlation functions in the vicinity of the ...
متن کاملMicroscale thermophoresis quantifies biomolecular interactions under previously challenging conditions.
Microscale thermophoresis (MST) allows for quantitative analysis of protein interactions in free solution and with low sample consumption. The technique is based on thermophoresis, the directed motion of molecules in temperature gradients. Thermophoresis is highly sensitive to all types of binding-induced changes of molecular properties, be it in size, charge, hydration shell or conformation. I...
