The assembly and disassembly dynamics of microtubules (MTs) is tightly controlled by MT-
associated proteins. Here, we investigate how plus-end-directed depolymerases of the …

Taxol and tau are two ligands that stabilize the microtubule (MT) lattice. Taxol is an anti-
mitotic drug that binds β tubulin in the MT interior. Tau is a MT-associated protein that binds …

Molecular motors often work collectively inside the cell. While the properties of individual
motors have been extensively studied over the last decade, much less is known on how …

Cooperative ligand binding to linear polymers is fundamental in many scientific disciplines,
particularly biological and chemical physics and engineering. Such ligand binding …

Deposition and evaporation of infinitely thin hard rods (needles) is studied in two
dimensions using Monte Carlo simulations. The ratio of deposition to evaporation rates …

We discuss effects of the step** kinetics of molecular motors on their traffic behavior on
crowded filaments using a simple two-state chemomechanical cycle. While the general …

Intracellular transport and cytoskeletal organization are the result of an interaction between
elastic filaments and force generation by motor proteins. The observed phenomena are still …

The kinetics of the electron-transfer reaction between pentaaminepyrazine ruthenium (II),[Ru
(NH3) 5pz] 2+, and trisoxalatecobaltate (III),[Co (C2O4) 3] 3-, was studied in sodium bis (2 …

The adsorption kinetics and thermodynamic properties of a binary mixture on a square
lattice are studied using the random sequential adsorption with surface diffusion (RSAD) …

The phase behavior and adsorption kinetics of hard-core particles on a honeycomb lattice
are studied by means of random sequential adsorption with surface diffusion. We …
