Abstract:
The generation of directed movement of cellular components frequently
requires the rectification of Brownian motion. In this talk, we discuss
mathematical models that track bias generation by nano machine constructs. These
dynamic constructs work during cell division and their efficient operation
requires specific interactions with dynamic bio polymers. We use first passage
techniques to derive mesoscale properties for these motor constructs using
microscale rates and reactions.
