We present a simplified model of the dynamics of translocation of RNA through a nanopore which only allows the passage of unbound nucleotides. In particular, we consider the disorder averaged translocation dynamics of random, two-component, single-stranded nucleotides, by reducing the dynamics to the motion of a random walker on a one-dimensional free energy landscape of translocation. These translocation landscapes are calculated from the folds of the RNA sequences and the voltage bias applied across the nanopore. We compute these landscapes for 1500 randomly drawn two-letter sequences of length 4000. Simulations of the dynamics on these landscapes display anomalous characteristics, similar to random forcing energy landscapes, where the translocation process proceeds slower than linearly in time for sufficiently small voltage biases across the nanopore, but moves linearly in time at large voltage biases. We argue that our simplified model provides an upper bound to the more realistic translocation dynamics, and thus we expect that all RNA translocation models will exhibit anomalous regimes.
We investigate the translocation of a single stranded DNA through a pore which fluctuates between two conformations, using coupled master equations. The probability density function of the first passage times (FPT) of the translocation process is cal
Solid-state nanopores are single molecule sensors that measure changes in ionic current as charged polymers such as DNA pass through. Here, we present comprehensive experiments on the length, voltage and salt dependence of the frequency of double-str
Using Langevin dynamics simulations, we investigate the dynamics of polymer translocation into a circular nanocontainer through a nanopore under a driving force $F$. We observe that the translocation probability initially increases and then saturates
Using Langevin dynamics simulations, we investigate the dynamics of chaperone-assisted translocation of a flexible polymer through a nanopore. We find that increasing the binding energy $epsilon$ between the chaperone and the chain and the chaperone
We investigate the dynamics of DNA translocation through a nanopore driven by an external force using Langevin dynamics simulations in two dimensions (2D) to study how the translocation dynamics depend on the details of the DNA sequences. We consider
