Unraveling on kinesin acceleration in intracellular environments: A theory for active bath

A single-molecular motor kinesin harnesses thermal and nonthermal fluctuations to transport various cargoes along microtubules, converting chemical energy to directed movements. To describe the nonthermal fluctuations generated by the complex environment in living cells, we propose a bottom-up model...
