Predicting the Directional Transport of Multivalent Cargo from Position Dependent Binding and Unbinding Rates
Abstrak
Multivalent cargo that can interact with substrates via multiple interaction sites exhibit shared characteristics despite being found in different systems at different length-scales. Here, a general analytical model has been developed that can describe the motion of multivalent cargo as a response to position dependence in the binding and unbinding rates of their interaction sites. Cargo exhibit both an effective diffusivity and velocity, which acts in the direction of increasing cargo-substrate binding rate and decreasing cargo-substrate unbinding rate. This model can reproduce previously published experimental findings using only the binding and unbinding rate distributions of cargo interaction sites, and without any further parameter fitting. Extension of the cargo binding model to two dimensions reveals an effective velocity with the same properties as that derived for the $1$D case.
