Crowding induced switching of polymer translocation by the amalgamation of entropy and osmotic pressure
Summary: The translocation of polymers is omnipresent in inherently crowded biological systems. We investigate the dynamics of polymer translocation through a pore in free and crowded environments using Langevin dynamics simulation. We observed a location-dependent translocation rate of monomers sho...
