Abstract:
|
An inchworm processive mechanism is proposed to explain the motion of dimeric molecular
motors such as kinesin.We present here preliminary results for this mechanism focusing on observables like mean velocity, coupling ratio and efficiency versus ATP concentration and the external load F. |
