Spontaneous Oscillations of Collective Molecular Motors
Open accessAbstract
We present a physical mechanism which can lead to oscillatory motion of molecular motors cooperating in large groups when the system is elastically coupled to its environment. Analytical and numerical calculations reveal a characteristic type of oscillatory behavior with cusplike extrema. Typical oscillation frequencies are determined by the internal time scales of the motors. The physical mechanism we describe generates in a natural way many of the characteristic properties of spontaneous oscillations observed in some muscles and myofibrils.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
