Increased accuracy of ligand sensing by receptor diffusion on cell surface.
The physical limit with which a cell senses external ligand concentration corresponds to the perfect absorber, where all ligand particles are absorbed and overcounting of same ligand particles does not occur. Here, we analyze how the lateral diffusion of receptors on the cell membrane affects the accuracy of sensing ligand concentration. Specifically, we connect our modeling to neurotransmissio...
متن کاملIncreased accuracy of ligand sensing by receptor internalization.
Many types of cells can sense external ligand concentrations with cell-surface receptors at extremely high accuracy. Interestingly, ligand-bound receptors are often internalized, a process also known as receptor-mediated endocytosis. While internalization is involved in a vast number of important functions for the life of a cell, it was recently also suggested to increase the accuracy of sensin...
متن کاملAccuracy of direct gradient sensing by cell-surface receptors.
Chemotactic cells of eukaryotic organisms are able to accurately sense shallow chemical concentration gradients using cell-surface receptors. This sensing ability is remarkable as cells must be able to spatially resolve small fractional differences in the numbers of particles randomly arriving at cell-surface receptors by diffusion. An additional challenge and source of uncertainty is that part...
متن کاملSurface diffusion enhanced chemical sensing by surface acoustic waves
A new chemical sensing method that enhances sensitivity and selectivity is proposed and verified by theoretical analysis. This method is based on the spectral analysis of the dynamics of adsorbed molecules on surface acoustic wave (SAW) delay lines and resonators. Various sources of noise, including diffusion and adsorption–desorption noise is considered. # 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights...
