RNA聚合酶马达:停留时间分布、速度和动力学相

RNA polymerase motors: dwell time distribution, velocity and dynamical phases

Tripti Tripathi, Gunter M. Schütz, Debashish Chowdhury

摘要:

从模板DNA聚合RNA是通过称为RNA聚合酶(RNAP)的分子机器进行的。它还使用模板作为轨道,其作为利用化学能输入的马达在轨道上移动。它在每个连续的DNA单体上花费的时间是随机的;我们在我们的模型中推导出这些“停留时间”的精确分布。平均停留时间的倒数满足Michaelis-Menten方程,并且也与Fisher和Kolomeisky早期推导的具有无分支机械化学循环的分子马达的通式一致。通常许多RNAP电机在同一轨道上同时移动。在我们的模型中阐明了RNAP之间的空间相互作用,我们还绘制了我们的模型的三维相图RNAP流量使用极值电流假设。

英文摘要:

Polymerization of RNA from a template DNA is carried out by a molecular machine called RNA polymerase (RNAP). It also uses the template as a track on which it moves as a motor utilizing chemical energy input. The time it spends at each successive monomer of DNA is random; we derive the exact distribution of these "dwell times" in our model. The inverse of the mean dwell time satisfies a Michaelis-Menten-like equation and is also consistent with a general formula derived earlier by Fisher and Kolomeisky for molecular motors with unbranched mechano-chemical cycles. Often many RNAP motors move simultaneously on the same track. Incorporating the steric interactions among the RNAPs in our model, we also plot the three-dimensional phase diagram of our model for RNAP traffic using an extremum current hypothesis.
