We investigate the translocation of a stiff polymer through a nanopore in a membrane, in the presence of binding particles (chaperones) that bind reversibly to the polymer on both sides of the membrane. A bound chaperone covers one…
Using Langevin dynamics simulations, we investigate the dynamics of chaperone-assisted translocation of a flexible polymer through a nanopore. We find that increasing the binding energy $\epsilon$ between the chaperone and the chain and the…
We investigate a model of chaperone-assisted polymer translocation through a nanopore in a membrane. Translocation is driven by irreversible random sequential absorption of chaperone proteins that bind to the polymer on one side of the…
We study translocation of semiflexible polymers driven by force $f_d$ inside a nanometer-scale pore using our three-dimensional Langevin dynamics model. We show that the translocation time $\tau$ increases with increasing bending rigidity…
Chaperone-assisted biopolymer translocation is the main model proposed for translocation \textit{in vivo}. A dynamical Monte Carlo method is used to simulate the translocation of a stiff homopolymer through a nanopore driven by chaperones.…
Chaperones are binding proteins which work as a driving force to bias the biopolymer translocation by binding to it near the pore and preventing its backsliding. Chaperones may have different spatial distribution. Recently we show the…
We investigate the translocation of a stiff polymer consisting of M monomers through a nanopore in a membrane, in the presence of binding particles (chaperones) that bind onto the polymer, and partially prevent backsliding of the polymer…
Chaperone-assisted translocation through a nanopore embedded in membrane holds a prominent role in the transport of biopolymers. Inspired by classical Brownian ratchet, we develop a theoretical framework characterizing such translocation…
We employ a three-dimensional molecular dynamics to simulate translocation of a polymer through a nanopore driven by an external force. The translocation is investigated for different three pore diameter and two different external forces.…
We investigate the dynamics of polymer translocation through nanopores under external driving by 3D Langevin Dynamics simulations, focusing on the scaling of the average translocation time $\tau$ versus the length of the polymer, $\tau\sim…
We consider the dynamics of a translocation process of a flexible linear polymer through a nanopore into an environment of active rods in the {\it trans} side. Using Langevin dynamics simulations we find that the rods facilitate…
The translocation of a polymer through a pore in a membrane separating fluids of different viscosities is studied via several computational approaches. Starting with the polymer halfway, we find that as a viscosity difference across the…
Polymer translocation through a nanopore in a membrane investigated theoretically. Recent experiments on voltage-driven DNA and RNA translocations through a nanopore indicate that the size and geometry of the pore are important factors in…
We investigate the translocation of stiff polymers in the presence of binding particles through a nanopore by two-dimensional Langevin dynamics simulations. We find that the mean translocation time shows a minimum as a function of the…
We study the driven translocation of a flexible polymer through an interacting conical pore using Langevin dynamics simulations. We find that, for a fixed value of externally applied force and pore polymer interaction strength, the mean…
Motivated by identifying the origin of the bias dependence of tension propagation we investigate methods for measuring tension propagation quantitatively in computer simulations of driven polymer translocation. Here the motion of flexible…
We investigate several scaling properties of a translocating homopolymer through a thin pore driven by an external field present inside the pore only using Langevin Dynamics (LD) simulation in three dimension (3D). Specifically motivated by…
We perform two-dimensional Langevin dynamics simulations of electric-field driven polymer translocation through an attractive nanopore. We investigate the effect of the location of the attractive region using different pore patterns. This…
The transport of polymers with folded configurations across membrane pores is investigated theoretically by analyzing simple discrete stochastic models. The translocation dynamics is viewed as a sequence of two events: motion of the folded…
The translocation of biopolymers, such as DNA and proteins, across cellular or nuclear membranes is essential for numerous biological processes. The translocation dynamics are influenced by the properties of the polymers, such as polymer…
