External mechanical force as an inhibition process in kinesin's motion.
We analysed published force-velocity data for kinesin using classical Michaelis-Menten kinetic theory and found that the effect of force on the stepping rate of kinesin is analogous to the effect of a mixed inhibitor in classical inhibition theory. We derived an analytical expression for the velocity of kinesin (the stepping rate, equal to the ATP turnover rate) as a function of ATP concentrati...
متن کاملDamping optimization in mechanical systems with external force
We consider a mechanical system excited by an external force. Model of such a system is described by the system of ordinary differential equations: Mẍ(t) + D(v)ẋ(t) + Kx(t) = f̂(t), where matrices M,K (mass and stiffness) are positive definite and the vector f̂ corresponds to an external force. The damping matrix D(v) is a positive semidefinite matrix which depends on damping positions and parame...
متن کاملPreliminary Studies on Force/Motion Control of Intelligent Mechanical Systems
To rationalize the relatively high investment that industrial automation systems entail, research in the field of intelligent machines should target high value functions such as fettling, die-finishing, deburring, and fixtureless manufacturing. For achieving this goal, past work has concentrated on force control algorithms at the system level with limited focus on performance expansion at the a...
متن کاملPinpointed muscle force control via optimising human motion and external force
The main focus of our research is to control the load of selected muscles by using a power-assisting device, thus enabling more effective motion support, rehabilitation and training by explicitly specifying the target muscles. In our past research, a control method was proposed for static human motion. The results of simulation and experiments showed that it is possible to control the force of ...
متن کاملProcessive kinesins require loose mechanical coupling for efficient collective motility.
Processive motor proteins are stochastic steppers that perform actual mechanical steps for only a minor fraction of the time they are bound to the filament track. Motors usually work in teams and therefore the question arises whether the stochasticity of stepping can cause mutual interference when motors are mechanically coupled. We used biocompatible surfaces to immobilize processive kinesin-1...
