Flexible single molecule simulation of reaction-diffusion processes
An algorithm is developed for simulation of the motion and reactions of single molecules at a microscopic level. The molecules diffuse in a solvent and react with each other or a polymer and molecules can dissociate. Such simulations are of interest e.g. in molecular biology. The algorithm is similar to the Green’s function reaction dynamics (GFRD) algorithm by van Zon and ten Wolde where longe...
متن کاملSingle molecule studies of biological processes
A sampling of our recent applications of single molecule fluorescent studies to biological molecules and molecular systems is reviewed. This work represents the combined efforts of over a dozen collaborators whose contributions are cited throughout the paper.
متن کاملSingle Molecule Simulation of Diffusion and Enzyme Kinetics.
This work presents a molecular-scale agent-based model for the simulation of enzymatic reactions at experimentally measured concentrations. The model incorporates stochasticity and spatial dependence, using diffusing and reacting particles with physical dimensions. We developed strategies to adjust and validate the enzymatic rates and diffusion coefficients to the information required by the co...
متن کاملSimulation of single-molecule trapping in a nanochannel.
The detection and trapping of single fluorescent molecules in solution within a nanochannel is studied using numerical simulations. As optical forces are insufficient for trapping molecules much smaller than the optical wavelength, a means for sensing a molecule's position along the nanochannel and adjusting electrokinetic motion to compensate diffusion is assessed. Fluorescence excitation is p...
متن کاملMonte carlo simulation of a single-molecule detection experiment.
The physical and instrumental processes that occur in experiments for the detection of individual fluorescent molecules in solution are described, with emphasis on their incorporation into a quantitative Monte Carlo simulation. The simulation is applied to the conditions of a past experiment [Appl. Opt. 34, 3208 (1995)], which utilizes a sheath flow system for high detection efficiency, and it ...
