Diffusive transport in the presence of stochastically gated absorption.
We analyze a population of Brownian particles moving in a spatially uniform environment with stochastically gated absorption. The state of the environment at time t is represented by a discrete stochastic variable k(t)∈{0,1} such that the rate of absorption is γ[1-k(t)], with γ a positive constant. The variable k(t) evolves according to a two-state Markov chain. We focus on how stochastic gatin...
متن کاملDiffusion in Cells with Stochastically Gated Gap Junctions
We analyze a one-dimensional (1D) model of molecules diffusing along a line of N cells that are connected via stochastically gated gap junctions. Each gate switches between an open (n = 0) and a closed (n = 1) state according to a two-state Markov process, and the gates are treated as statistically independent. We proceed by spatially discretizing the stochastic diffusion equation using finite ...
متن کاملDiffusion on a tree with stochastically gated nodes
We consider diffusion on a tree with nodes that randomly switch between allowing and prohibiting particles to pass. We find exact expressions for various splitting probabilities and mean first passage times for a single diffusing particle and show how the many parameters in the problem, such as the node gating statistics and tree topology, contribute to these exit statistics. We also consider a...
متن کاملStochastically gated diffusion-limited reactions for a small target in a bounded domain.
We calculate the reaction rate for stochastically gated ligands diffusing in a two-dimensional and a three-dimensional bounded domain with a single small target. Each ligand independently switches between an open and a closed state according to a two-state Markov process; a reaction between ligand and target can only occur when the former is an open state. In the large-time limit the reaction-r...
متن کاملStochastically gated local and occupation times of a Brownian particle.
We generalize the Feynman-Kac formula to analyze the local and occupation times of a Brownian particle moving in a stochastically gated one-dimensional domain. (i) The gated local time is defined as the amount of time spent by the particle in the neighborhood of a point in space where there is some target that only receives resources from (or detects) the particle when the gate is open; the tar...
