A nanopore-based device provides single-molecule detection and analytical capabilities
that are achieved by electrophoretically driving molecules in solution through a nano-scale …

Probably no other field of statistical physics at the borderline of soft matter and biological
physics has caused such a flurry of papers as polymer translocation since the 1994 …

Various biological processes involve the translocation of macromolecules across
nanopores; these pores are basically protein channels embedded in membranes …

We investigate the influence of polymer-pore interactions on the translocation dynamics
using Langevin dynamics simulations. An attractive interaction can greatly improve the …

Flexible polymers such as long DNA, RNA molecules, and proteins, can pass through a
narrow pore whose size is comparable to their molecular thickness. We highlight the …

We present a Brownian dynamics model of driven polymer translocation, in which
nonequilibrium memory effects arising from tension propagation (TP) along the cis side …

We investigate the dynamics of DNA translocation through a nanopore using 2D Langevin
dynamics simulations, focusing on the dependence of the translocation dynamics on the …

Abstract Theory and numerical simulations play a major role in the development of improved
and novel separation methods. In some cases, computer simulations predict counterintuitive …

We investigate the dynamics of polymer translocation through nanopores under external
driving by 3D Langevin Dynamics simulations, focusing on the scaling of the average …

We study the dynamics of driven polymer translocation using both molecular dynamics (MD)
simulations and a theoretical model based on the non-equilibrium tension propagation on …
