Optimal Rectification without Forward-Current Suppression by Biological Molecular Motor
نویسندگان
چکیده
We experimentally showed that biological molecular motor F$_1$-ATPase (F$_1$) implements an optimal rectification mechanism. F$_1$ hardly suppresses adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis, which is the F$_1$'s physiological role while inhibiting unfavorable hydrolysis of ATP. This a high contrast to simple ratchet model, where inhibition backward current inevitably accompanied by suppression forward current. The detailed analysis single-molecule trajectories demonstrated novel but mechanism with parallel landscapes and asymmetric transition rates.

Current rectification in molecular junctions produced by local potential fields
The transport properties of an octane-dithiol ODT molecule coupled to Au 001 leads are analyzed using density-functional theory DFT and nonequilibrium Green’s functions. It is shown that a symmetric molecule can turn into a diode under influence of a local electric field created by an external charged probe. The origin of the asymmetry of the current-voltage I-V dependence is traced back to the...

متن کاملCollective Current Rectification
We consider a set of coupled underdamped ac-driven dynamical units exposed to a heat bath. The coupling scheme defines the absence/presence of certain symmetries, which in turn cause a nonzero/zero value of a mean dc-output. We discuss dynamical mechanisms of a dc-current appearance and identify current reversals with synchronization/desynchronization transitions in the collective ratchet’s dyn...
متن کاملProjective Rectification Without Epipolar Geometry
We present a novel algorithm performing projective rectification which does not require explicit computation of the epipolar geometry, and specifically of the fundamental matrix. Instead of finding the epipoles and computing two homographies mapping the epipoles to infinity, as done in recent work on projective rectification, we exploit the fact that the fundamental matrix of a pair of rectifie...
متن کاملCoil Ringdown Suppression by Broadband Forward Compensation
Introduction: MRI signals from high field systems (1T and more) are typically much narrower than the bandwidth of the involved digital and analogue RF components for transmission and reception. In the case of high power RF pulse transmission the RF component involved with the least bandwidth is the RF coil offering bandwidths of 2 0.5 10 . However with the advent of ultra-short T2 sequences suc...
