Theory of molecular machines. II. Energy dissipation from molecular machines.
Single molecules perform a variety of tasks in cells, from replicating, controlling and translating the genetic material to sensing the outside environment. These operations all require that specific actions take place. In a sense, each molecule must make tiny decisions. To make a decision, each "molecular machine" must dissipate an energy Py in the presence of thermal noise Ny. The number of b...
متن کاملTime-dependent response theory and nonequilibrium free-energy relations.
The mathematics of time-dependent nonlinear response theory frequently leads to results which although formally exact, are not amenable to experimental application or even to use in computer simulations. Here we give a rigorous derivation of a tractable expression for the thermostatted nonlinear response of classical many body systems to time-dependent dissipative fields. The theory also allows...
متن کاملContinuous medium theory for nonequilibrium solvation: I. How to correctly evaluate solvation free energy of nonequilibrium
Considering the influences of electrostatic potential Phi upon the change of solute charge distribution deltarho and rho upon the change deltaPhi at the same time, a more reasonable integral formula of dG = (1/2) integral (V) (rhodeltaPhi + Phideltarho)dV is used to calculate the change of the electrostatic free energy in charging the solute-solvent system to a nonequilibrium state, instead of ...
متن کاملFluctuation theorem, nonequilibrium work, and molecular machines
We could paraphrase Professor Noyori [1] and say that the science of molecular machines is four-dimensional chemistry since their 3D structure (x, y, z) is coupled to their motion and kinetics (t). In condensed phases at equilibrium, the motion is erratic with equal probabilities of moving forward or backward according to the principle of detailed balance. Therefore, unidirectional motion is po...
متن کاملNear-equilibrium measurements of nonequilibrium free energy.
A central endeavor of thermodynamics is the measurement of free energy changes. Regrettably, although we can measure the free energy of a system in thermodynamic equilibrium, typically all we can say about the free energy of a nonequilibrium ensemble is that it is larger than that of the same system at equilibrium. Herein, we derive a formally exact expression for the probability distribution o...
