A Brownian ratchet for protein translocation including dissociation of ratcheting sites

A Depperschmidt, N Ketterer, P Pfaffelhuber - Journal of mathematical …, 2013 - Springer
We study a model for the translocation of proteins across membranes through a nanopore
using a ratcheting mechanism. When the protein enters the nanopore it diffuses in and out of …
