分子马达作为沿微管运输货物的工具的干扰

Jamming of molecular motors as a tool for transport cargos along microtubules

Lucas W. Rossi, Carla Goldman

摘要:

文献[1]中介绍的分子马达货物运输的跳跃模型。goldman 1,goldman 2,在这里被扩展,以便包含货物-运动复合体的运动。在这种情况下,跳跃过程表达了货物在运输发生的微管处的相邻马达之间交换的可能性。电机堵塞对于货物以这种方式执行远距离移动至关重要。使用扩展模型进行的计算机模拟结果表明,货物可能会执行双向运动中存在的电机的一个单一的极性,确认以前的分析结果。此外,这些结果表明,货物跳跃和复杂的运动之间存在一个平衡,可能会控制货物转移和货物交付的效率。在运输过程中所涉及的能量的考虑表明,这里提出的模型提供了一个相当大的优势,在文献中的其他模型,货物的运动是限制在货物-电机复合体的运动。

英文摘要:

The hopping model for cargo transport by molecular motors introduced in Refs. goldman1, goldman2, is extended here in order to incorporate the movement of cargo-motor complexes. In this context, hopping process expresses the possibility for cargo to be exchanged between neighbor motors at a microtubule where the transport takes place. Jamming of motors is essential for cargos to execute long-range movement in this way. Results from computer simulations performed using the extended model indicate that cargo may execute bidirectional movement in the presence of motors of a single polarity, confirming previous analytical results. Moreover, these results suggest the existence of a balance between cargo hopping and the movement of the complex that may control the efficiency of cargo transfer and cargo delivering. Considerations about the energy involved in the transport process show that the model presented here offers a considerable advantage over other models in the literature for which cargo movement is restricted to the movement of cargo-motor complexes.
