  • Title: Physical analysis of a processive molecular motor: the conventional kinesin.
    Author: Ciudad A, Lacasta AM, Sancho JM.
    Journal: Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys; 2005 Sep; 72(3 Pt 1):031918. PubMed ID: 16241493.
    Abstract:
    We present a model that allows for the derivation of the experimentally accessible observables: spatial steps, mean velocity, stall force, useful power, efficiency and randomness, etc. as a function of the [adenosine triphosphate] concentration and an external load F. The model presents a minimum of adjustable parameters and the theoretical predictions compare well with the available experimental results.
