Interacting molecular motors: efficiency and work fluctuations.
We investigate the model of "reversible ratchet" with interacting particles, presented by us earlier [F. Slanina, EPL 84, 50009 (2008)]. We further clarify the effect of efficiency enhancement due to interaction and show that it is of energetic origin, rather than a consequence of reduced fluctuations. We also show complicated structures emerging in the interaction and density dependence of the...
متن کاملBrownian motors: current fluctuations and rectification efficiency.
With this work, we investigate an often neglected aspect of Brownian motor transport, namely, the role of fluctuations of the noise-induced current and its consequences for the efficiency of rectifying noise. In doing so, we consider a Brownian inertial motor that is driven by an unbiased monochromatic, time-periodic force and thermal noise. Typically, we find that the asymptotic, time-, and no...
متن کاملFluctuations, responses and energetics of molecular motors.
A novel equality relating the rate of energy dissipation to a degree of violation of the fluctuation-response relation (FRR) in non-equilibrium Langevin systems is described. The FRR is a relation between the correlation function of the fluctuations and the response function of macroscopic variables. Although it has been established that the FRR holds in equilibrium, physical significance of vi...
متن کاملMolecular motors interacting with their own tracks.
Dynamics of molecular motors that move along linear lattices and interact with them via reversible destruction of specific lattice bonds is investigated theoretically by analyzing exactly solvable discrete-state "burnt-bridge" models. Molecular motors are viewed as diffusing particles that can asymmetrically break or rebuild periodically distributed weak links when passing over them. Our explic...
متن کاملCollective dynamics of interacting molecular motors.
The collective dynamics of N interacting processive molecular motors are considered theoretically when an external force is applied to the leading motor. We show, using a discrete lattice model, that the force-velocity curves strongly depend on the effective dynamic interactions between motors and differ significantly from those of a simple approach where the motors equally share the force. Mor...
