Role of ATP-hydrolysis in the dynamics of a single actin filament

Padinhateeri Ranjith, Kirone Mallick, Jean-Francois Joanny, David Lacoste

摘要:

我们研究的随机动力学的增长和收缩的单个肌动蛋白丝考虑到插入,删除,和ATP水解的亚基根据矢量机制或随机机制。在以前的工作中,我们开发了一个模型,一个单一的肌动蛋白或微管细丝发生水解根据矢量机制:细丝只能从一端生长,并与单体的水库接触。在这里,我们扩展这种方法在几个方面,包括两端的动力学和比较两种可能的机制ATP水解。我们的重点主要是在一个单一的长丝,即矢量或随机模型的水解机制的两种可能的限制模型。我们提出了一组实验来测试肌动蛋白丝内的水解的精确机制的性质。

英文摘要:

We study the stochastic dynamics of growth and shrinkage of single actin filaments taking into account insertion, removal, and ATP hydrolysis of subunits either according to the vectorial mechanism or to the random mechanism. In a previous work, we developed a model for a single actin or microtubule filament where hydrolysis occurred according to the vectorial mechanism: the filament could grow only from one end, and was in contact with a reservoir of monomers. Here we extend this approach in several ways, by including the dynamics of both ends and by comparing two possible mechanisms of ATP hydrolysis. Our emphasis is mainly on two possible limiting models for the mechanism of hydrolysis within a single filament, namely the vectorial or the random model. We propose a set of experiments to test the nature of the precise mechanism of hydrolysis within actin filaments.
